Electricity

Hustling static coursing through the air It is buzzing and crackling everywhere It’s not safe to be outside when a storm is building fast Let us head into the barn before the lightning blast Suddenly a brilliant flash, we’re blinded by the light Startled by the thunder, it rolled and shook the ground Electricity is marvelous; it even makes a sound It works in our appliances and even in our cars Coursing through the circuit boards with lights like little stars Capacitors, resistors, and microchips abound Everywhere we look, we see them all around Another flash, a crash and the thunder roared again Can we make it to the house to see our show begin?
