The Howling Tempest

From afar a mist like Folded hand encircles The naked atmosphere Like a drop of oil in water Spreads,like cancer Hides in oblivion and Manifests unannounced Wrecking havocs To seeds of mother earth, Like blanket bath Covers the fleeing legs. Like blazing furnace Scorched the souls. Like a game ace, Invincible it remains. With bleary-eyes We look to it's swift destructions- With horror blazoned Across the horizon. Only in due course, Can the seasoned Sun rise from the horizon. Surely nothing can lift This nature's curse.

I am not sure of your intent of this work but it seems that you are speaking of what is going to take place upon this earth after God calls his church home..It is going to be a horrible time with things happening in nature that we can't imagine..There will be plagues like the ones that happened Egypt when Pharoh would not let the Israelites go..Enjoyed reading your work..I noticed that you dropped by.Sara
