I know that these Hurricanes can be so destructive but nature can be quite amazing.
You really nailed it with the picture here hun, describing what it would be like to live through one. I have never myself but reading your poem - made me feel like I was there.
I loved how you said completely silent - made me think of THE EYE OF THE STORM where it goes quiet and then BAM! Everything starts up again.
I love watching documentaries on Natural disasters
