Tornadoes of the Midwest

Tornadoes of the Midwest                Quintain (English) a.b.a.b.b

Multiple tornadoes touchdown in America’s Heartland
Storming in one after another in succession, 
Hitting so hard, Oklahoma City could not withstand
Crushing the buildings to flatten by the wind's transgression
Storms getting stronger and stronger in progression

Twisters were born in the area called tornado-alley
When cold air from the north blowing down into the Midwest 
Collides with the hot air flowing up from the southern valley
Thus giving birth strong twisters, that local residents detest
Families and benevolent societies have to restore the city without rest
