The Tornado

The tremendous trembling
troubling thrashing terror
trees tipped, torn then tossed
Tornado tracked toward trail.

Trampling, transforming
telegraphing thoughts 
totally teased time
turning today to tomorrow.

Thinking this tale
tells the tragic turmoil
took tolls, turned themes
that transfixed tranquility.

Then Tuesday told 
theocratic terrible topics
thus totally tearing 
thy tender topography.

Thanks Maureen, that's a poem I wrote a few months ago. I had to edit the poem for a contest. Thanks for the comment. Wayne
