Aftermath of a Storm

The wind dies down People peek out their windows To see the damage done And damage has been done indeed Branches strewn everywhere Small fires Power lines knocked down Leaves and petals all over the streets Garbage cans a few houses over from where they reside Eventually, people start picking up the wreckage Branches are thrown back in the woods Fires are put out Power lines fixed Leaves and petals swept up Garbage cans put back in people's garages The sun shines And all is well in the world again
