~ By Sue ~ The trees were swaying back and forth Things were blowing across the yard And the clouds were turning dark As the wind was blowing so hard Then I heard the sirens roaring Loud enough to hear all around The trees were no longer blowing And I was clear across this town My home was on the other side And, I wished that I was there But, here I was so far away With no shelter anywhere The sirens stopped and I rushed home To my animals there alone 5-17-03 We have had tornados all week, now. Alot of damage has been done in the little towns around me, and on the northside of my city. |

Tornadoes are an eerie fright, in my mind. The tunnels, the darkness...the sudden silence...and yet so much energy harnessed in a single spout. Hope you are all safe, and settled. TD |

But, I didn't even have her phone number with me. I will let you know if I can get a hold of her. |
