I wonder if the storm be a little orderly

would it be not so loud, so harsh

would it be a little less destructive

would the wind decrease its massive flow

would the tide rise not that high

If only the storm was a little orderly

would it not make the buildings to fall

would it not gulp lives too many

would a little more be spared from its wrath

If only the storm was a little orderly

the bridges may develop a few cracks

yet they won’t break completely

they would still allow the cars to pass

If only the storm was a little orderly

I would still find my wife and children back

for they wouldn’t end up being in the storm’s mouth

I would still find them standing under the tree

waiting for me

only if the storm was a little orderly

the storm sure, would loose its power

the power to become gigantic

It wouldn’t have turned into a STORM at all

If only the storm had learnt

to be a little orderly

  1. Unfortunately the storms in our lives are disorderly, unless we can see behind the scenes. Then they are totally orderly. 😉
