The Day of the Dust Storm
By Lucas & Tyler
We woke up one morning with the bright
Sun burning our faces as we try and sleep
I almost got heat stroke with the scorching
Temperatures reaching in the 100’s
I haven’t seen rain for a month
And my dad’s farm has almost been completely dried out
And all our crops have been destroyed.
I went outside to check how hot it had gotten
There was then this tremendous breeze of wind
That almost swept me off my feet
The light blue sky and sun was then filled
With this dark cloud of gray dust that you could see over the top of
As a little boy I was hoping that it
Would all go away and disappear
But in the back of my mind I knew it wouldn’t
