Blog PostsFriends | Oblivionby WildWithWords From sunny to shady From bright into gloom All eyes skywards Portents of doom. Greying and fraying Those howling dark skies Vortex forming Deadly surprise. Louder and louder A freight train on high Nearer and nearer Nature’s drive-by. Swirling and whirling Shrill screaming winds Countdown to terror As lift-off begins. Cameraman capturing That final nightmare Posterity witnessing That frozen scream there. One second to forever Nails ripped from walls Planks torn asunder Oblivion calls. Devastate then dissipate A scar of debris spray It’s over…. and it’s done Someone’s world blown away.

NaDz _: You've captured my attention with this poem about nature. Love the way it woven together so well especially (which is my favorite line of this poem) 'a scar of debris spray'.....love it!
