Rise To the Occasion

Rise to the occasion of the weather Inform the storm of cruel intentions Lift your eyes above tsunami fury Take back the waves you came in on Make earthquakes miracles that move Shake hands with disaster for awhile Love your neighbor as yourself in puddles Play in the mud of love before it dries Take that which you were born with Leave volcanoes to their ashes gray Stay quiet in the lava beds of dawn Leave disasters to their own devices Look at asteroids but do not touch Take a twister with a turn of hurricane Call in the morning if things should change Tell the rain to come and go away Listen to the laughter as it thunders Watch clouds steal water from the lake Evaporate before you take another breath Use a light switch in the sky Turn the sun off if it gets too high Keep your distance as life rolls in Take the next wave out of misery Make a wish. It is your turn to hide Die but only if you have to in the tide Be smart and batten down the hatches Be kind to lightning. It could strike back in kind.
