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...

 Southern Tornadoes, Rain and Mississippi flood 

  

Wind and rain O' what a pain, 

havoc and destruction brought 

Endurance and hope again, 

overcomes what nature has wrought 

  

Second wave brings a slow river...

Thunderstorms and Tornadoes
My mind tells me things won't be okay
For me until it's gone.
My mind tells my body it's okay
To sleep and hold no Earthly shape.
My mind tells my soul that it's okay
Things will be better off this way.

No more pain,
I wonder if I'll feel myself decay.
No...

The Birthplace of Tornadoes
Storms are brazen, often rude,
Lighting the sky with invectives
Of white-blue light terrible.

The rains carp the submissive
Ground wearing it so slowly
Down into curves, mud.

The thunder stomps through
Heaven’s empty rooms above.
It knows the children tremble

Beneath, conjuring punishments
Through tall silken crowns
Where venomous rodents erupt.

In boredom, the storm sulks
Away....

Tornadoes in the mind
Explorers go in to see what they can find.

Thoughts and words flying this way and that
To many thoughts and words to fill a hat.

Psychosis of the brain
Leave all others out in the rain.

Tornadoes in the mind
Explorers go in to see what they...

Black Tornadoes
Black tornadoes, destroy
Everything, in their path
Not bothering to stick around
for the aftermath
It's like Us, in their Misery, they
wish to give a bath
Just to break Us, and tear Our
hearts in half
As if this signature hit, is some
sort of autograph
Leaving behind this stillness and
Cold draft...

The Day of the Tornadoes
The Day of the Tornadoes

By Elton Camp

April 27, 2011 is a day we’ll long recall
When natural disaster on Alabama did fall
The weather bureau warned us days before
And nobody ignores the forecasts anymore

Every family decides on the best place to go
And listens carefully to the NOAA...

Severe Tornadoes on the Way

By Elton Camp

For folks living in the United States Midwest
Nature’s fury may soon put them to the test

People are being warned what they should fear

From Texas to Minnesota...

The Year of the Tornadoes--2011
The Year of the Tornadoes—2011

By Elton Camp

Tornadoes are a natural force everyone hates
It’s part of life for us living in the United States
Other countries also have these storms to fear,
But the vast majority of them occur right here

Deaths from tornadoes have been in sharp decline
Because...

Tornadoes of New Hampshire
Yesterday I thought I try
to help some strangers, I thought I would cry
So we drove an hour and half to meet
The rain was so torrential we could hardly see

But our mission was true and hopefully we strove
All along the road a beautiful green land cove...

The Seasonal family 
of Mother Nature
and Father Time
When it comes to
a family reunion,
they are never far behind.
Winter, Spring, Summer 
and Fall.

With her daughter 
always on the ball.
Mother Nature’s 
first born, Weather.

She is not as predictable 
as we would like to think.
Weather may be 
in the...

I love the snow and beautiful blue skies,
gentle rain and thunderstorms,
winds that blow the fall leaves,
leaving a gold carpet up to my knees.

I don't like duratio winds,
or tornados that suddenly blow in,
earthquakes that take down walls,
or warm fronts that stall.

When flood warnings are posted,
I always...
