Lightning

L-ightening flashed and lit the sky
I-ndeed it was a storm nearby
G-usts of wind and sounds of thunder
H-igh in the clouds and way down under
T-rees and houses shaking with fear
N-ot a person had a minute to spare
I-t was never so scary at night
N-ever ever was the sky so bright
G-rannies and children all cuddled up tight.
