100-word Microfiction

A storm’s comin’
You can feel it
In the wind
In the air

You can taste it
An acrid taste
A little sour
Maybe sweet

It doesn’t matter
Storm’s comin’
You live on a bay
Calm, placid, safe

Storms disrupt
Calm vanishes
Waves crash, wind billows
Disruption pervades

It’s only a storm
Storms pass regularly
Close the storm gates
Batten the hatches

Attending to boundaries
Is how you keep safe
Around the tranquil bay
Storm walls protect
