Power Outage

Here I sit alone Alone in the dark No light anywhere Not even a little spark The lights went out Halfway through the storm Life tomorrow will be Nothing like the norm. Hurricane Zeta Came through with a fury To the shelter We must go in a hurry The winds were so strong And blew with such might Listening to the howling winds All through the night When morning came Without the normal lights Looking around you at The aftermaths fright Trees were blown down And powerlines snapped Moving along carefully As not to get zapped 2 days so far we've gone Without electricity Who knows how long It will continue to be. 10/30/2020
