Stormy Tableau

Burgeoning storm clouds
quickly envelope
the fiery red sky.
Lightning forks to ground
shattering the night
as thunder rumbles.

I had forgotten that lightning did this, but it surely does! "Lightning forks to ground" I really like this line!

Thank you, Caren! I've heard that Florida is the lightning capitol of the world; I've certainly seen a lot of it.
