Meet the Natural Disasters

My name is Lightning. I like to put on light shows As I travel with Thunder, Around the world with rainstorms. Though I am fantastic to watch, I can also be deadly, Cause minor damage to buildings and trees, And sometimes I start fires. My name is Tornado. What I do on land My brother Hurricane Does on the water. Using very strong winds, As I go around in circles, I destroy everything in my path Until I have no strength left. My name is Flood. I show up when man-made Water holding structures break Or rivers overflow their banks. I can wash away homes, Or leave them buried in mud, Causing a lot of damage Which man is forced to clean up. My name is Earthquake. No one knows when I’ll strike, But sometimes I do give some signs Before I really shake things up. I can cause minor damage Or destroy many structures Leaving many people homeless Until their homes can be rebuilt. My name is Volcano. I’ve been known to cause floods, Shake the ground and smoke Before I blow my top. Then when I can no longer hold back, I explode spewing out hot lava Destroying everything in the lava’s path And covering it up with volcanic ash.
