In the Caribbean Sea,
Where the waters are warm,
There's a type of storm,
That can cause quite a swarm.

It's called a tropical storm,
Chaotic and wild,
With an intensity that can make you beguiled.

As the storm forms,
A structure takes shape,
A spinning vortex,
That can cause an earthquake.

From high up in space,
A satellite can see,
The storm as it grows,
And gains intensity.

In the center of the storm,
There's an eye that is calm,
But surrounding it is an eyewall,
That can cause great harm.

If you're in the path of the storm,
It's time to evacuate,
And find a safe place,
Where you can patiently wait.

As the storm moves on,
It will condense and weaken,
But until it's gone,
The danger is not beaten.

So if you're ever in the Caribbean,
And a tropical storm is on the way,
Remember to be cautious,
And listen to what the experts say.
