Forecast

There's rain in the forecast Days of Rain Greying my verdant spring Violent storms are expected So be ready for damage The atmosphere is just chilly enough To produce golf size hail Be wary of pound--pound---pounding On shelter's roof and walls Some damage is irreparable Flash Flood watch is in effect Expect all low spots to be flooded In the resultant deluge Emergency personnel may be delayed With other calls at the time It is advised that you prepare in advance Store extra batteries and lanterns--food and water Then take that beautiful glass heart from your windows lest it be smashed A storm warning is now in effect.
