Thunder In the Rain

clear and peaceful 
the air fell still
the clouds moving in
in the distance
over the hill

the birds stopped singing
the bees disappeared
the traffic slowed 
as the storm brewed near

glistening rain 
trickled from the clouds
heavier and heavier
the drops came down

the sky above us rumbled
like anger from up above
a roar of booming explosion 
like a passionate kind of love

electric charged the atmosphere
the sky expanded tragically
an ever-growing endless dream 
of raging power
and 

magically..

The sky lit up
an intensive surge of power 
contractions heightened 
the storm
hour by the hour

the lightening molten silver
vivid in night
the megawatt anger of nature
striking in plain sight

slashing through the darkest clouds
blacker than the devils soul
the thunder duetted the lightening
nature is in control

subtly the diagnosed 
began to loose its symptoms
the sun peaked through
the clouds fluffed up 
natures unwilling victims

the bluey grey brindle 
with the softest accent of white
the beauty of the sky 
always outshines 
the stormiest of nights .
