Montana Destruction

The day is calm, yet something is vividly wrong
Unusual colors have highlighted the sky
Darkened shades of red and grey are enhancing this questionable day,
While something unknown to us stirrs in the distance
There's a reason for not showing it's presence.

People are frightened to exist outdoors
The animals are hiding inside
The rivers are flowing uncontrollably
Streets are massively covered
Homes are flooded, some beyond repairing

Yet, a sudden embrace of that unknown something has come forward
to offer protection.  This bearded stranger had mended our troubles
Montana Destruction is now Montana Creation.
