THE TERRIBLE STORM

Posted bycolinhopkirkPosted inUncategorized 
it sounded terrible
roaring around
out there in the dark
rattling slates
shaking fences and trees
it sounded terrible
only it wasn't
not really, not here
in other places 
the storm applied itself
got stuck in
in other places 
it was newsworthy
