Darren White Poet Sonnet

Notes About The Poem

Aquila - Collaboration With White Wolf

The wind swept up in a tormenting gale,
Both the ground below and the sky were frail,
History repeats or so they do say,
All the elements released on this day.

Fire consumed earth with its passing flame,
Enraged were the oceans, nothing was tame,
Volcanic ash filled the air like a cloud,
Thunder was clapping as if it were proud.

No one could see in the gathering sky,
Up high above a great eagle did fly,
Talons on the ready to strike his prey,
This son of none, he was flying this way.

     Dove down, flash of lightning, relentless speed
     Accurate hurricane, in time of need

Doug Vinson March 9, 2017 at 9:43 AM So you guys got together and drank some tequila? Oh wait - sorry, should have read more closely. Nice flight. And on the 'White' conspiracy, let us not forget that white is all the colors of the rainbow combined. : ) Darren White March 10, 2017 at 1:00 AM It rhymes well, Doug haha :) And yeah! That's right about those colours. Does it also work when your name is (Darren) White, but your skin is more mocha/olive coloured?
