Never before, have I seen such destruction,
The wind blew with all it's might.
Eye-witnesses to this abomination,
Said "houses and cars took flight."
Some said they "just felt lucky to be alive."
Now, what we are seeing is the aftermath,
Total carnage has been done.
For the people out there, still able to move,
The clean-up has now begun.
But they're the lucky one's.

In the wake of such poewrful forces, it is a blessing to find friends and loved ones in one piece and the tragedy that befalls a few is sad to hear about or witness.
Thanks for entering into the contest.
Be well and be blessed,
