Tornado Spirals

Churning ominous dust, an angry sky pounded it's fists that ferocious afternoon. Draping a charcoal blanket, brooding air suddenly darkened all brightness. Threatening winds whipped thrashes on boulders and branches, Spinning madly around, dizzy in it's vortex, a tornado descended from funnel clouds. Destruction everywhere, in vengeful rage trembling trees uprooted, blown far away. Rainsoaked birds fluttered, hurled at an insane trail in malefic power and speed, Earth was decimated. A wild pirouette storm, dancing and swirling in turbulence of downpour, at last is calmed. A carnage of broken pieces in shattered shards of shrapnel... But after a haze of hangover, spreads again a bijoux night of fairy tales, hiding behind those stars we count. A new day again drips from the sun. In a soft rustle of morning breeze leaves again dance in little spirals. 13th June 2020 Sponsor Kai Michael Neumann Contest Name Spiral
