Storm #Poetry #Journey

dark, ominous clouds
lurk above
the whipping, swirling wind
draws in the storm
a brilliant flash
across the sky
one… two… three… four…
a crack in the heavens
opens
the loud rumble
reverberates
the immense power
looms up above
destructive and awesome

I love this and also to bear witness to the power of Nature’s “Destruction and Awesomeness” as you say in your own words.

  Thanks Carol Anne. We have had more Spring storms in Colorado than I can ever remember.
