Hurricane

Slowly blowing
The curly wind begins to whirl
Like a dancer
Kindly lifting life
Up in the blue sky 
Turning it grey and wet and cold
As it speeds and grows
Bigger and bigger and bigger
Faster and faster and faster
Turning into this giant scary 
Master of the earth and sky and beyond
Leaving nothing quiet behind
Sweeping every field
Sucking every sea 
Razing and destroying 
Everything as it passes by
Giving life to storm and thunder and hail
Ripping every sail
Tearing every root
Only lovers left alive
Alone...
