Hurricane





Hurricane

By Robin Lee Shelby

Stay tuned
Updates coming
Two flags waving
Hurricane warning

Silence
The calm
Deafening quiet
Before the onslaught

Breezes
Drizzles of rain
Slick roadways
Time to put up the shutters

Wind gusts
Dancing limbs
Slanting rain
The storm is near

Rain in sheets
Howling winds
Flying things
The storm is here

Unexpected calm
Quietness
Fresh smell
The eye

Renewed onslaught
Driving rain
Sound of drums
The storm returns

Water dripping
Ditches full
Grass glistening
The Storm has passed
