“A
rushing mighty wind”[i]
blew threw
Whipping up walls of waves
Sweeping amusement away
Filling cracks
Crevices
With swirling debris
Announcing for all to see
Majesty in its raw power
“A
rushing mighty wind” blew threw
Trees bending…bowing…dancing…
Sporadically swaying and cracking
As limbs break away
Flying into space
Crashing and smashing
The reality of what was
Pulling down wires
Igniting fires…exploding in time
“A
rushing mighty wind” blew threw
Flood waters submerging cars
Roared into homes
Engulfing victims snuffing out lives
The death toll rises
As tremendous
trees
Fall to the earth
Announcing more fatalities…
“A
rushing mighty wind” blew threw
As darkness spread across the land
Broken humming bird sounds
Eerily peeped between whooshes
Of the wind song
Howling obliteration and destruction...
Airborne roofs shed shingles
That mingled with agony and tears of loss.
We
shall rebuild shout voices intensifying from devastation
and desolation
We
shall succeed sing voices together in harmony and
unity
We
shall prevail…for this is our destiny.
