Tornado Watch
Right now there’s a tornado watch,
Although the sky’s bright blue.
How accurate the warning is,
I haven’t got a clue.
Tornadoes aren’t common here,
Yet things can always change.
There’s lots of crazy weather now,
Unusual and strange.
When Dorothy of Kansas tried
To shelter, she was scared,
But in that world, the people
(Real and fiction) were prepared.
We have no place for hiding here
From twisting winds so strong,
So I will hope the weather folk,
As usual, are wrong.
