Churning over open waters,
nothing in its path.
Fueling fire inside itself,
destroying all within its wrath.
It starts as a depression,
forming slow and fast.
Then a tropical storm,
with a hurricane at last.
It grows angry upon the sea,
like a beast inside a cage.
Waiting to showcase its power,
in a last and final rage.
When at last it roars,
it will feast upon the land.
Taking all within its grasp,
dealing a final deadly hand.
Here it will die,
upon the grassy Earth.
Fighting till the bitter end,
showcasing all its worth.

I love the imagery of “feast upon the land”, makes it very animalistic!
