God Is Just Bowling!

When I was a kid Scared out of my mind Thunder, lightening, and wind Would always make me cry... Seeking solace from my Mother She always explained to me, All that loud, crazy thunder Was God just bowling! A. Green

Love your poem, Amy. I first heard about "bowling" in the heavens in the story of Rip Van Winkle. It does help to ease a child's fear of thunder. Nice job! Love, Carolyn
