Storm Symphony
The sky is a flickering
wonder, the lightning,
pulsating, strike after strike
The thunder plays a
resonant beat as the
rain begins to tumble
down, falling in sheets
Hitting the tin roof, it
strikes up a tune, a
concert from nature
tonight
The frogs join in
with their deep baritones
as the night birds
sing to the storm
I lie here, safe and warm
and drift off, sailing
on a sea of dreams
