Storm warning

Slowly the light fades
the rain patters on the window
grey all the way round
the wind veers southwest

Calm before the storm
the last ferry ventures out
carrying passengers
from all the islands

The double black and red
will soon fly
over our little town
as winds rise in the night

Hunker down
batten down the hatches
secure everything that's loose
and hold fast...
