Thunder

I crash and boom People fear me I lash and loom None come near me I rock and roll Children I scare You can't control My anger flare Lightning's my bro Rain's my sister Where'er she'll go I'll assist her

Simple and sweet with beautiful rhyming! Your personification of thunder and lightning as brother and sister is so original and apt, dear Joanna. The one thing I fear most is thunder. As a child, I used to hide in dark spaces whenever there was a thunderstorm. Even now that fear lingers. All the Best dear friend.

Dear Joanna, this thought brings a smile. ' Lightning's my bro, rain's my sister. ' :) Such a clever way to express thunder and the companions that like to stay connected. I love the rain. Even a thunderstorm, one that doesn't cause any damage. My best to you, my dear friend. :) Hugs, Brandy
