Cyclone Tracy Short Stories

the winds were unimaginably strong. There was no sign of shelter and people with terrified faces huddled together. my family was in the middle of it. We had been through something like that. We never ever returned. our dog always howls in a storm. He cannot bear them. Neither can we.
