This is the closest I have been to hurricane energy.....  find it a very new experience.....  first one came through, I was listening to it walking across the land..  in that strange way it walks

through wind gust

and I thought I heard it breaking tree roots

200 miles away.. 

Strange sounds like thunder.. 

(must be cousins.. )

but without the same dance of Wakinyan

(Indian name for Thunder, lightning storm).. 

First one came with strange sounds..

and then tree falls down,

uprooted as hurricane (Gustavo) walked her path.... 

this one (Ike) on Saturday night arrived very quietly until I heard the sound of second tree coming down..  first tree wife, second husband, stood next to each other...  he left right behind her....  kind of amazing the way they are both laid down on the ground beside each other now..  they left 2 weeks apart... must have been their love fore each other...  for surely who would think that a hurricane could come up through New Orleans and pass through my yard, take down Nefretiti... and then 2 weeks later a hurricane by the name of Ike comes onshore in Galveston Texas and passes through my yard to take down Nefretiti's husband Pharaoh.

 

hurricane is a very different energy...  so large you wouldn't even know where to run away to (unlike its cousin tornado)  It's like when that wind arrives alls you can do is pray...
