Tornado

I was inspired to write this by a story my biology teacher told during class. Hope you guys like it.

From a distance,

I saw Him coming.

He being the big ol' tornado.

I wasn't filled with fear,

But with excitement.

He was a nasty one.

Bringing big ol' wind along with him.

I laughed as I watched from a distance.

As He tore apart houses,

And took away anything it could touch.

I waited for it to touch me.

Reach me.

I dared Him.

Laughed at Him.

I closed my eyes as He drew near,

Let my arms spread wide

And flew in His wake.

I was laughing,

Filled with joy.

Who knew where I was going to land.

I didn't care

This is quite nice. I like that each line is short, it keeps a momentum as such to the piece. But what I thought was interesting was your use of the capital letters when you mentioned 'Him' or 'He.' It gave me the vibe that it might have been a little more than a tornado. At first I thought maybe it could have been a God of some sorts and then maybe even a person who is like a tornado for the narrator. But I'm still not sure - it could just be a tornado. :) Either way, it's nicely done that it makes a reader think. :)
