The Thunder Advance

Black and white rainbow with tornado eyes 
spinning spotting hard on a lightning bolt;
Such electricity in a slow dance;
Rhythm picks up with the darkening skies 
lingering on finger tip’s gentle jolt;
Detonation of pomp and circumstance 
but really it’s merely a soft whisper;
Beginning with a lock of the deadbolt
you rendered me immobile with a chance
to feel our heart’s race watching the thunder                              
                         advance.
