Today it's both in Nashville. Tornado Watch as well as Flood Advisory due to severe thunderstorms. We escaped the tornado but I still remember the last one.
The sky grows dark and ominous
As storm clouds gather near
The air is thick with tension
As we brace ourselves in fear
The lightning flashes brightly
As the thunder starts to roll
The wind begins to howl
As the rain starts to pour
But it's the tornado to fear most
A swirling, deadly force
That tears across the landscape
Leaving destruction in its course
We huddle in our shelters
As the winds rage outside
Praying for the storm to pass
As we try to hide
But when it's over and we emerge
We see the damage that's been done
The twisted metal and broken homes
Lives forever undone
Yet even as we mourn
And pick up the pieces of our lives
We know that we'll face the storm again
For it's a part of nature's strife.
