On a murky and tumultuous evening
With a roaring fire crackling
The thunder and lightening
Which so many find frightening
Seem to soothe me and almost behoove me
To dance in the dark and smell the sweet rain
But so many bolts of lightening
In a night sky the with shades of grey
Seem to reach for me to light my way
My heart beats along with the sound of the rain
Drip drop, tick tock
Loud enough to make my heart stop
Brought back again by the sounds of
Owls hooting and screeching
Wolves playing and barking
Winds whipping and howling
A symphony not a cacophony
Making music sweet enough to wake the dead
Or scare them back into their beds
I love a good storm
The power, the chance
Calling me out to play and to dance
Poem 8/22/18
