Why oh Why?

It's the season!

Here I lie beneath the sky

But why oh why oh why?

“Our roof is gone,” said my sister

“Taken by a Texas twister”

Author's Note

I wrote this for Emma's group, but couldn't figure out how to post it there. It's not much, I know, but maybe will cause a grin or two.

It used to be said that they'd steal anything not nailed down, but nature doesn't play by the rules when she us annoyed. 😃

Thanks. In this part of the world, tornados are a real threat. I'll try to follow your instructions.

And it has caused a grin or two from/by me! Your words are an example of 'never was a word said in jest - unless written by Mr Dickens!' Offered and laid in your usual grand style, sir.

Thank you.

I hope this is not true????? Our country is being pummeled by tornados. I hope you and your loved ones are ok. I know you live somewhere prone to tornados, too. Yikes! Aside from real life concern, I enjoyed your poem. It is a nice use of rhyme and meter, which I admire. I'm terrible at that. What was the group assignment/goal? I'm really happy to see new work from you!

Thank you. The twisters have missed us so far and I hope it stays that way. I hope they steer clear of you, too. It seems I can barely write anything anymore.
