Nice write, very expressive and yes it was very devestating. We saw the destructiive power and its aftermath. It was so devestating that there are no words to describe the scene....
This book represents a thirty-day period of my poetry journal. Each poem addresses
the dominant thoughts occupying my mind during the early morning hours of a given
day.
Be safe,

This one is intense. Succinct word choice builds to a poem on the EF 5 Scale! Excellent!
