Dust Bowl Memories

It was caused because of severe drought In certain areas of the United States Houses were in jeopardy of course And through years they met their fate For dust filled the attics of these homes Causing them to simply collapse Parts of Texas, Kansas, and Oklahoma Are three of the states on the map The dust storms were a nightmare In the 1930’s up until the year of 1941 They are called the Dust Bowl days An almost impossible life for some Modern technology and improved conservation Better control of the wind erosion During times when there is less rainfall Helps ward off this terrible dust explosion It was a difficult time for folks back then Not always enough food on the table Makes us realize how good we have it now Let’s give thanks for a life that is stable!
