Brewing Storm

clouds cover the moon 
          thunder shatters the silence   -
                frightened baby cries

Kim I enjoyed your wording and how you put these together to give it an earthly quality and a realalistic flare, it also has a haunting quality to it love the last two words baby cries, nice final touch that fits just right to this work, cheri
