Storms

 

Myth       Interview      Journal

     When I was younger all of us cousins would play baseball in our Grandpa and Grandma's yard. One day, the sky turned dark and the winds got brisk. Grandma came out from the kitchen and told us to get into the cave. Our cave was a dark, dirt, hole with double wooden doors and wooden steps. It was not a scary place but it was very dark. You would sit inside the cave, trembling in fear of what was going on outside. We could hear the loud rain drops and the gusts of wind blowing up against the old wooden doors. We would all sit and wait quietly for Grandpa to open the doors. We looked out and it was nothing but sunlight and birds chirping. It was hard to believe that the noises we had heard had happened just a moment ago. We finished our baseball game and admired the beautiful rainbow in the sky above us. This was truly an example of the ever-so-changing weather on the plains.
