After The Thunder
The sky a disruptive horizon
creating havoc in calm of evening
when electric thunder suddenly booms
without notice from neutral evening.
The shrill of invasive pyrotechnics
frighten animals and children
in their near hour of slumber.
Flickers of quiet ensues against
restless distress of the neighborhood.
Clouds begin to roll in steady flow,
that after the thunder, kids devour
pleasant bowls of strawberry yoghurt.
