Satellite watched her swirl
Sandy lifted her skirts
Danced with delight
Tonight would be her night
Hi there, Aussie!
Nice to see your work again. I like this because it is SO true. Sadly, the "world" seems to think that our world will go on forever, even when they see the devasting flood of Australia a couple of years ago; earthquakes happening almost daily, everywhere, and now Sandy (following not far behind Katrina).
I thank God for those of us who know and accept the fact that He is in control; I pity those who don't, and who are set on defying Him only because they won't take time to listen and learn. As you say, we've all been warned; no excuses for not being ready.
God bless you.
Lois

Comment from Moniba
A very well written poem! I loved the central idea. Though to me, the third stanza seemed a bit off. The best part for me is the last four stanzas. I look forward to more of your poetry.

Comment from Bindu Saxena
The opening lines:
Satellite watched her swirl
Sandy lifted her skirts
Danced with delight
Tonight would be her night
are just the perfect start esp.the first two lines.You have not only treated the subject so diligently but there is also a learning and faith that is stressed upon - in God and in future.I also liked that you also talked about animals.The word 'toothpicks' is also very apt. I congratulate you for this beautiful piece!
