Must have been some storm

 Must have been some storm 

An isolated tornado on the Beaver

A squall across the water

Endangering the flock of geese

Heavy limbs torn like cardboard

Ripped off and strewn where they fell,

Roped off debris awaiting corrective action

Leaning south towards the mighty Ohio

Here between dams with fish enclosed

No fishing draught and river low 

Must we all go along with the season

Ripped from our roots before we're transplanted 

The long train running on tracks flows

Through the forest to the station we must go
