THE PERFECT STORM

Keep one’s eye

Diligent

On the sky

As weather draws nigh

For even gentle rain

For weeks

Can be deceptive


Over your shoulder

A dark cloud drops in

With abundance of

Lightning, and

Gusty crisp wind


I was awakened

Early morn

Forewarned

By Helena herself

Her eye on Asheville

Her rain soaked winds

Brought destruction and death

And death and destruction

As the mud slides

And the creeks rise!!

Carl Sandburg Writer 2023



Author’s Note: literally jillions of trees in a 200 mile radius were uprooted by 99 mph winds. Some rivers in these Appalachian valleys rose 60 feet taking all with it. Whole towns were completely washed away. The environment remains toxic. Let us be thankful for neighbor helping neighbor. Let us continue to pray for those who lost EVERYTHING, and family. They are without water and roads and houses and belongings yet today🙏
