Storm

Flashing sheet lighting
Over Sydney in the distance,
Nimbus clouds grey and dark
Shaping storms existence.

Outside will soon be raining
Pouring kangaroos,
Guess people will be talking of
The weather on the news-

There’s a cow in a tree
Spiders clinging on for life,
We have a house under water and 
The domestic wildlife.

Oh here it falls upon me
Cold and wet and dripping,
Hold onto your phones
We all will soon be swimming.

The sky it is soundless
Bolts of lightening firing down,
Feeling kinda safe up here
On higher sacred ground.

Am almost in the heavens
Almost in the sky,
An eagles eye view
Of umbrellas walking by.
