the strong wind


The strong wind blowing
The palm trees swaying
Dancing hard with the wind
The big whirring sound in the air

It came in many directions
The palm leaves could show the way
The strong wind had no idea
Which direction it wanted to go

The potted plants rattled
As the wind tried to uproot it
Shaking uncontrollably in its wake
The strong wind didn't make its way

When it was over
A bird's nest fell on the ground
There was no egg or birdie
It was a case of wind casualty

In the morning
The birds came to tweet
Looking for the nest
There was nothing on the palm tree
