A hurricane is coming
One with devastating winds
Time to hunker down and pray
Much to my chagrin

Worrying about our safety
Our unease and concerns
The danger here is eminent
Swirling as it churns

Time to be with family
To guard and to protect
Preparations made
For what hasn't happen yet

Waiting on impending doom
Hard to not feel gloom
The crack of lightning and the thunder boom
The gusting wind to its own tune
