Child of Thunder

lightening strikes once. twice. Boom. as the sound of thunder fills the room shaking the earth. the ground we walk terrifying little children to babbling talk it shoots from the sky without a backward glance do we dare to go out and risk taking the chance the thunder is only the innocent part the lightening, however is the root. the heart. it lights up the sky way up high soaring quickly across the sky breaking glass tearing down tree's making sure the disaster is seen finally the last rumble as it comes to an end only talked about when we gossip with friends but the night will drag on for that little child those thunderous nights make life seem mild
