Storm Darkness

Gloaming appears in the horizon Waiting for the onset of hurricane Flickering candle lights dimness Fear of unknown rises suddenly Storm winds in the pitch black night As a lion roaring in the deep jungle Stillness of night creatures sounds Prevailing the fury of the meteor Calmness reigns again in the tropic The fallen trees portraits the reality When the roots are not well grounded Succumb to the gusts of tropical storms For In The Dark Poetry Contest Sponsored by Russell Sivey September 13, 2017
