If you want to find out who your frends are,
Natures lessons are the best.
Once I had a blessing,
It was the Tornado test.
The wind came like a train in fury,
It demolished my home and roof.
When the storm was over,
I had learned the real truth.
Only two friends came with hammer,
The rest just came to frown and look.
The Tornado was a real slammer,
Two smiling friends hands I shook.
We had just become homeless our things detroyed by rain.
The Tornado test was ruthless but two friend shared in the pain.
I thought others would be there to help me build, not just look.
But it took a neighbor and a black man to get me off the hook.
When I hear a person of hatred use a racial slur or name,
I remember the Tornado test, the ones who cared really came.
My life is changed forever thanks to the Tornado test.
Nature teaches us a lesson, God takes care of the rest.
