GOOD NEWS AT TORNADO ALLEY

 

The coverage in “Tornado Alley”*

Convinces that we often rally…

No matter how often

To disasters that soften

Our hearts to those in the Valley**

–

The number of tornadoes is less

This year, but still awful to mess…

With picking up lives

When circumstance dives,

And the suffering addressed.

–

But as the radio warned,

The hoodlums are also informed…

To set up scams

To say, “Thank you, Ma’ms”

As into purses they’ve wormed.

 

–Jonathan Caswell

*Tornado Alley is an area in the Central-Western United States that has a large proportion of tornadoes each year due to prevailing geographical and weather factors.

**Valley…As in the Valley of the Shadow of Death, in Psalm 23.
