Lickety Split

Lightning striking a wooden gate
Iridescent rainbow colors that seem to fluctuate
Cheetahs chasing after their prey
King Cobras lunging bite's that can slay
Eyes sending messages to the brain
Twin tornados and torrential falling rain
Your heart beats circulating blood throughout your veins

Speed of light is tops and cannot be beat
Perspiration developing in the heat
Legs making haste in a race
Intelligent computers answering our questions quickly everyday
Tectonic plates shifting causing tsunami's and earthquakes
