A very dark sky and a menacing feeling in the air Was felt around five; were we in for a scare? It got darker and darker; the wind picked up speed. A friend and 1 studying Art found it difficult to read. Then the heavens opened and bov did it hail! Were the drops bigger than marbles or was that a tale? We saw twigs and leaves flying in a whirlwind of rain. It sure was spooky - all this weather... insane! Then we noticed the skv - such bright colorful rays. Never seen such a sunset in all my born days. Then the weather calmed down; all became quiet; Bet it was good for people on a diet. It was steak night for us; they were cooked on grills. I wonder how many people got "steak" refills? Was pretty amusing, but chaotic too - No one could see who was who. All classes were canceled: buildings were locked. The dorms were SO dark - to our intern's room we flocked I think most people partied; a few tried to study While poor repairmen outside worked and got muddy After seven hours of darkness, the blackout was ended The workmen outside had all the wires mended. Hope no one suffered or got hurt during this time Think it was fun for most; now I've run out of rhyme...
