Dear Storm by James M

Dear Storm

Why do you rattle doors like castanets?

Why do you blow down massive, ancient trees with your cold, icy breath?

Why do you send your army of thunder and lightning, screeching and screaming, banging

and flashing?

Why do you create tornadoes which tear and rip our houses apart?

Why do you send armies of rain pouring and sloping down?

Why do you whip up foamy, splashing waves, which turn into treacherous, dangerous

whirlpools and water spouts?

Why do you send hail thundering down?

Why do you send eerie, spooky typhoons to scare children?

Why do you whip leaves around in colourful tornadoes?

Dear Storm

Why do you make the wind howl and whistle through the broken branches of ancient trees

with its eerie woodwind voice?

Why do you whip up foamy waves with your spooky thunder song?

Why do you make the rain pour endlessly on my bedroom window?

Why can’t you let us rest peacefully and quietly as we are not disturbing your angry, noisy

tantrum?

Why do you flood the bare streets with your cold, wet tears?

Why do you send cyclones and hurricanes with your frightening, commanding sound?

Why do you rattle loose doorknobs with your icy breath?

Why do you rip down trees like wet, soggy paper, with your scary, strong and freezing

voice?

Why do you send lightning to strike down at houses ever so eerily?

Why do you send rubbish hurtling in every single direction?

Why do you make leaves hang lifelessly on the trees with your wintry breath?

Why do you make the waves rise high and sink ships effortlessly with your dangerous

thunder?

Please write back soon.

Dear Storm

Why do you rattle the blinds like crazy tambourines?  Why can’t you be a little quieter so

children can go to sleep?

Why do you send trash can lids soaring through the air like crashing speedboats?

Why do you blow down trees with your cold hard breath?

Why do you brush the leaves off the trees and flip them like an acrobat to the ground?

Dear Storm by Brayden

Dear Storm

Why do you rattle the blinds with your cold frosty wind?

Why do you rattle the doors like a band of castanets?

Why do you send rubbish bin lids gliding gracefully through the cold wintery night like a

frisbee?

Why do you whip up waves that tower over ships?

Why do you make leaves fly through the air gracefully like acrobats?
