Stormbringer




'Terrifying' Storm Ciaran leaves cars smashed and homes damaged on Jersey. 
Storm Ciaran: Debris sent flying by 104mph wind in Jersey

A tornado and strong winds lashed the island on Wednesday night, with dozens of people evacuated from their homes.

Stormbringer

Outside, at night, a wind is rising
The storm comes, drawing near
Stay inside, officials are advising
And in its wake, the coming fear

Buildings shake, tiles torn apart
A tornado rips the roofs asunder
It has arrived, the beating heart
Zeus speaking, sound of thunder

Now the dryads cry out in pain
Branches snap, trees are falling
Pan’s lament is heard in rain
People cry as storm is calling

The storm is over, and all is ended
Now to heal the land so all is mended
