Poem
Storm tree stood there all alone Leaves all gone now the winds blown In the meadow Ripped off leaves a blazing trail Shaking limbs in thundering gales In the meadow Lightning striking all around Overhead into the ground Still the storm tree stands her ground In the meadow Branches reach up tall and proud Thunder rings out hard and loud In the meadow Lightning dances all around Never touching finding ground In the meadow Thunderbolts come crashing through Still she stands there proud and true Sky is flashing white and blue In the meadow Rain comes down with brutal force Striking bark and changing course In the meadow Pounding hard into the tree Still she stands defiantly In the meadow Lightning blazes near her roots Coming close in violent shoots Still she stands there resolute In the meadow Cracks of thunder bursts of light Silently she puts up fight In the meadow Wind blows hard against her boughs Bending her sleek branches down In the meadow Still she springs back stands up tall Defiantly resisting all So determined not to fall In the meadow Now the storm is moving on Very soon it will be gone In the meadow She has overcome the storm Elegantly keeps her form In the meadow Storm tree standing proud and tall Withstood hell and didn't fall Learned the best lesson of all In the meadow
