In Tornado Alley, the sky is our classroom.......

......Mother Nature is our instructor.

She is a demanding teacher
insisting attention to detail
if we are to reach her

and learn that day's lesson.

Every field trip is rich with learning
if we are willing to work
and not be blinded by yearning.

Seasoned eyes
can read stormy skies
like a road map as clear
as lines far and near.

Weather has rules
So say the fools
For storms do as they please
And that includes tease
Chasers scurrying on those tiny lines
like rogue ants eager to dine

on the feast that is a savage storm
from which tornadoes form.

Mesmerizing seduction.
Horrifying destruction.

Days of infamy
born from atmospheric symphony.
