A storm blew in like an unwanted guest
The angry wind made its presence known
Trees shuddered in its wake bowing to it,
Some could not withstand the sheer force of it
and gave up the fight.
A thousand tears came down from heaven
As leaves were reluctantly plucked from the
safety of the trees and forced to
Swirl among many perilous things.
Ocean waves hurled themselves furiously
at the unprotected shores
And the sky forgot there was a sun.
One cannot fight a force unseen nor defend
itself against nature's elements.
Where is God on a day like today?
Is he the shrouded force or is it the collective
feelings of an iniquitous people?
Why this turbulence of feelings swirling about?
Perhaps a test for humankind to strengthen the soul.
Put on your coat of armor and turn your face to the wind.
Do you have what it takes to survive the storm?
