let’s tether the weather
mom nature knows better
fires with ire
floods with mud
cat 5 ‘canes
winds howl like trains
twisters and twirlers
and tiddlywink hurlers
yesterday’s balmy
is today’s tsunami
quaking and shaking
the ground is breaking
or should that be braking
let’s clone the cyclone
I need it for a ringtone
these weather events
don’t make much sense
but mom nature marvels
just like fine-tuned marbles
perhaps duplicated commotion
or fractals in motion

A gander at me –
I enjoyed a dedicated career in the insurance industry for over 20 years being rewarded both professionally and personally. Now it’s time for me to follow my dreams by doing things I enjoy…spending time with family, learning, sharing, traveling, writing poetry and encouraging others to pursue their goals.

Thank you, S Francis! There are several of my poems similar to this tucked away in my archives. Perhaps, I should get them out and around. 🤔
