A Lull

As I slept a spell fell over me                                                                                                                                                   a storm was a brewing and the wind was picking up                                                                                                             trees were starting to bend and crack.

Trash cans were clanging from hitting the house                                                                                                                   wind chimes were chiming in the strong wind                                                                                                                           it all started to sound like a band with no rhythm.   
                                                                                                                    
Glass was breaking and car alarms started going off                                                                                                                   this sounded like strange music playing outside                                                                                                                        or was this part of that no rhythm band?    
                                         
They say there is a lull in the middle of a storm                                                                                                                        do not go out and do not be fooled it can kill you                                                                                                                     be safe and stay inside.   
                                                                                           
At my window I now see light coming in                                                                                                                                  was it a bad storm or a spell                                                                                                                                                  maybe just a dream.
