Green Skies and HailShare
I do not like green skies and hail.
They leave me feeling cold and pale.
In autumn gentle rains befriend us,
But spring brings lines of cumulonimbus.
The siren sounds to go to shelter.
There follow scenes from Helter-Skelter.
They love it at NSSL.
It's my idea of living hell.
Vacation days are meant for May.
Your *empty* house then blows away.
If safe in May you want to be
You must not go near OKC!
