There followed a little period of calm as the storm receded. Then a shower of rain returned to claim the land.
For away, the peaks of taller houses standing on the sides of the hill could be seen. Painful groans of men and beasts laced in a heart breaking shrill of lamenting agony could be heard. they were men afraid of nature's beastly madness and destructive craze. the beasts were frightened by the look on the faces of the men around them.
It was not yet over. The wind returned in another great gust, crashings through anything still standing. Roofs were sent flying and more houses fell.
From the distance came a loud bang followed by an uproar of screaming voices. the once peaceful River Okulu had broken her bank. Freed water was rushing into the village, drowning and carying away the people. The very strong ones were making it to the rooftops. soon, some roofs were collapsing and some drowned by the risin water level... ...
I struggled up in sweat, I thanked God, it was only a dream!
