MOTHER NATURE
Tornadoes are one of the deadliest and most unpredictible villains mankind will ever face.There is no rhyme or reason,no rhythm to it's madness.Tornadoes are one of the most terrifying natural events that occur,destroying homes and ending lives every year.April 29th ,1995,a calm,muggy,spring night I may never forget,Joey,a buddy I grew up with,just agreed to travel across state with me so we could visit a friend in Lubbock.Joey and I were admiring the beautiful blue bonnets, which traveled for miles like little birds fliying close to the ground.The warm breeze brushed across the tips of the blue bonnets and allowed them to the dance under the perfectly clear blue sky.In the distance ,however, we could see darkness.
A rumbling sky was quickly approaching.
We continued down the infinitely long interstate towards our destination.
Thunder clouds continued to rumble in,like an ocean tiderolling closer and closer to the beach front.Within minutes the entire landscape was calm and dark.It looked like a total eclipse of the sun,and the once moving bluebonnets were now completely still and somber.The rain began to trickle down out of the sky.The sound of the rain increased as we ventured further into the eye of the storm.
As we approached on overpass,we noticed parking a lot of used cars pilled underneath.By now,the rain had createda wall of water,which surroundedour car.We decided to pull over and sprint to the underpass to join the other frightened observes.What Joey and I were unaware of, what we couldn't possibly know,was that a torrado was already on the ground frantically spinnig its way towards our position.
The twister had just hit the ground and was gaining power and strength as it devoured everything in its path.We found ourselves even more frightened than we were just moments ago.The whirling "finger of God" was approaching us at a tremendous rate.The sound surrounding us was outrageous,it sounded something like a steam locomotive rooring towards us,whinning and whistling with an awful high pitched roor.As the rumbling cloud of darkness approached us ,we started to realize it's outstanding power.This event would be one that we wouldn't soon forget.The rain had almost completely stopped,but the wind was nearly blowing us off the ground as we huddled together under the overpass.We could hear the screeching sounds of car tries as they started sliding across the rain- soaked cement pavement.Electrical explosions lit up the darkened sky as the torrado ripped over lines,snopping them as if they were toothpicks.Screams erupted from the crowd as the tornado crossed directly over us,smashing large objects into yhe overpass payment.We were terrified as the twister rumbled over the roadway leaving us untouched.
Shortly thereafter it vanished from the sky,leaving only shattered pieces of falling fence pasts and telephone polls.Everyone slowly unreaveled from the huddle thet had protected from moments earlier.The sun started poking holes in the dark rumbling sky;the wind and rain had completely ceased,leaving it morbidly calm.The sun burned away every trace of lingering darkness in the sky.It was amazing to look back and see a mile long trail of destruction surrounded by homes and fences that were left totally untouched.
I remember thinking of myself how amazing thismoment was,and how grateful I was to be alive.Anytime I look back on those few minutes of my life,it makes me realize that I must cherish every single moment of it.
