The Rushing Storm
The Rushing Storm
Storm found my body gently at rest
it rushed in with an angry blast
Did its worst, then did its best
I had no time for it was too fast!
As the clouds smothered my views
the thunder rang upon my ears
Sad when we finally get our dues
yet such has to bring its tears!
Bold lightning stabbed the sorrows
each cutting sweet holding ties
Looking for far greater tomorrows
bed shaking where my body lies!
Nobody saw but this tale is true
bad sneaks upon us in such acts
When we may sleep without a clue
storm hits us with painful facts!
