This has been an active severe weather season. Got more bad storms yesterday evening; things fine here, but Karen and I are getting t i r e d of this!

Poem Artwork


High s c r e a m i n g winds of
nearly one hundred miles an
hour; flooding rains;

tornado warnings.
Not so much in the way of
hail, but who needs it

when you've got this?  An
evening spent hiding from the
wicked weather one

more time.  Supposed to
dry out for a couple days,
than right back to the

familiar pattern
we've been experiencing:
here we go, again!

(c) 2007, Karla Dorman (5/3)

It must be horrible...but I think God is trying to "save" this world by washing away so much sin and hate among the us all!!

Know the feeling, getting a little shell shocked myself. Since Denton Country is probably going to file for disaster aid, I might apply for farm aid because I keep having to bucket out the excess water from my garden. He,he,he! So what do you think?? We had to climb up on the roof and replace some roofing tiles and we have three windows that are cracked and will need to be replaced, chaching! Great write.

Be safe,
Karen

The hell with being safe, next storm, get drunk or high, then get two lawn chairs and set them up outside and go out and sit in them through the height of the storm and shout obscenities into the wind...I've done it, you just get wet and cold and sometimes electricuted, but its a really cool buzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz, Ed

Hard not to let it get to you when it's so damned persistant.
I've seen some of it on the weather channel and I really feel
for you guys. I pray it lets up soon. Wish I had a magic wand;-)
Take care gals,and keep writing...

Karla, I wish you could send some rain my way. The ground is so dry that it is like dust--looks like the consistency of flour. You can keep the tornadoes, but sure would love to see rain here.

As always, your shot weather poems are specific and interesting.
