Dune Perdue
Updraft lifts limbs, leaves scurry like mice exposed
Mother Nature shakes shorebreak, incline imposed
Gnaws at sand buried tree toes gnarled, spit polished
Hourglass chamber sugar dwindle, dunes demolished
Churning chant casts a melancholy spell, people powerless
Moan of manic Manager’s anger depicts dreary dourness
Man on the Moon cheese puff cheeks chew mushy monsoon
Rain runs through town, to be trapped by typhoon
Form of parading peacock, pigment stripped, fan feathers vibrate
Look - at - Me Leuca’s lazy turns spur first hurl of weather irate
Fancy fowl foxtrot gathers gusts in her skirt skitter spin
White witch whips wind, water waltz whirls, wild chagrin
Hummingbird hurricane hovers over ocean, dizzily dragged to occult
Sect stretches elastic strap string - tied to tornado’s tumult
Brash as a bastard coconut afloat on Baltic Sea, bashes calm ground
Leuca retracts tail regal, regrettably her force flung coast bound
Cranky current circus tent cyclone, lions leap out of hoops
Lost roof iron roams rogue across roads while Princess Leuca loops
Serene above storm, she surveys scatter, stricken war worn love lorn
Tree tremors drip torrid toll, feet attach fresh turf, in readiness reborn
12th March
Thankfully only a tropical low
hit coast of Oz
