Storm Warning

There are softly spoken
warnings muttered
in trees, hurrying
footsteps, windows
being closed. 
It's headed this way.

Be quick….hide.
I fear that what is coming
will find you
and all those things
that had moved
so gently, so delicately 
through this lovely world 
only a while ago,
will be lost.
