Warning! Expecting hurricane
The skies threaten
The chirps of the birds wane

Wind swirls through the streets
Rain comes down in sheets

You can hear the thunder rumble
Trash cans tip over and tumble

Windows are closed tight
Children feel fright

The winds' speed grows higher and higher
All over is pulled down telephone wire

A hurricane has chilly blasts
Rolling in from the sea, billowing the ships' masts

It crashes onto land
Many houses no longer stand

At the end of its destruction
We all must join in new construction





We are appalled by its force
Suddenly it comes to the end of its course
