Funnels

The daisy sways in the breeze.

The winds pick up.

A siren sounded, alerting that tragedy is near.

Winds whip around,

The sky turns green.

Nothing good could come out of this.

This could be the end of me.

I could die.

I may not be here tomorrow.

This could be my last breath.

Words I would never thought I would have to think.

Wretched funnels start to form up above.

Lower and lower they come.

Touching down, a funnel comes my way.

Run.

Get out of here.

Closer the funnel comes.

I'm done for.

I'll die for sure.

"Now I lay me down to sleep,

I pray The Lord my soul to keep.

For if I die before I wake,

I pray The Lord my soul to take," I prayed silently.

I sat down,

Closed my eyes,

And let myself go.
