Chinook

Chinook drives hard.
Winter snow whittled away,
frostbite cover destroyed.
Silent Night, no longer secure.
Ranting blast after another.
this almighty mission at hand.
Destructive menace.

Chinook never tires.
Bent on dismantling peace,
While the quiet forfeit
their hibernating right.
For nook and cranny residents,
time to take flight.
Howling dog cries Mary.

Chinook be bold.
Comes the calm,
before the storm.
I awaken, my senses fulfilled.
And like the heaven sky above,
now all so clear.

Chinook, now serenades.
Wind chime in tune.
A note, then another.
Soon a melody.
Message deciphered.
Mother Nature’s pledge,
of allegiance..
of elegance.

Chinook….
another harsh mistress!
