The dismal, drizzling midnight and happenstance finds her lost by an empty field with few things left to lose and even fewer shames concealed. She lifts her face to the rain and loses herself to nature's forces. When at last she looks back down; she first sees the ghost horses. Two white ones, one brown...

The air hangs heavy, still, a silent shroud, Before a tremor cuts through the waiting crowd. A distant crack, a sharp and sudden tear, And then the rumble drawing ever near. The speed of sound, a constant measured pace, A finite journey through time and empty space. Yet in that limit, paradox resides, A delayed witness to what fate provides. The lightning flashes,...

Lightning flashes so brightly outside; rain's falling fast and furious. Feeling vibrations in my fingers jolts loosen the window pane. Delightful, but frightful, quivers follow. Mummy shudders, shoulders and head; Sissy covers up her ears. I'm deaf, my other senses eagerly expect something after sparks. I wait and faces change.

You hear that sound, she says, the thunder rolling, Do not be afraid, for it's only God and his angels bowling. But the lightning, they cry, it's...

The dark clouds pur, And there's nothing but blur. While the cool breeze whispers , The thunder awaits to strike. The grass murmurs, A big storm is coming.

The pain it evoked showed the scars - That its rolling thunder had scored. I fled before it arrived, A beauty too destructive to meet. But it...

Do not listen for me in wind whispers Or echoes down the lane, My spirit would never settle For such quiet and mundane. I won't be found in soft starlight Or twinkles on velvet snow, Toward things quiet and serene Isn't where my soul would go. Not among sleepy night forests Or captive in the lyrics of a song, Amidst the tranquil and...
