TORNADO


DEATHWIND(August 1944)

A sudden still thunder whispered low


notessoftly in the restless evening song


,joining ominous brilliant lighting bolts,


flashing downward with arrows short and long.


The clouds joined the chorus billowing high,


rolling across plain, mountain and dell,


filling the expanse of ruptured sky,


hasten the twirling wind into a surly gale.



The responsive rain sheeted house and barn,


out the window dazzling light illumined debris in flight


,inside curtains shivered and walls shook with alarm,


and terror filled the souls


that frightful night.So this night earthly inhabitants
shook,frighten yet, praising God no souls were took.___G.LAWS
