Thunder and Lightning (7/19/94)

BOOM!
A fire in the sky
A rumble in the distance

A thudding in your ear
Your heart skips a beat
A crackle in the air
As the vibration catches your feet

Nature’s fireworks
The clashing of gods

An explosion of fury
As the clouds collide
In a great battle
That seems to never subside

The cold rain hits tour face
It sends a chill down your spine

The sky begins to cry
As the tremendous light show continues
You’re frightened by the noise
And yet a strange sort of peace dwells within you

A natural wonder that
graces the sky
The shape of this beauty
quickly catches you eye

Overcome by the sound
Hypnotized by the sight
You give in to the wonder
As your imagination takes flight!

Soaring through the tempest
Dancing with the clouds
Wrestling with the lightning
The thunder: hear it sound

Back here on Earth
You rub and open your eyes
You look up as the clouds
Are leaving the skies

The remnants of the summer storm
The air is damp but warm
You think the storm has totally gone
But one last beauty before it goes

Enter - the rainbow…
