Darkened clouds appear
A storm approaching
So very near
A clap of thunder
Such a turbulent sound
Forks of lightening
Hit the ground
As an orchestra playing
Pounding on timpani drums
Thunders resonant roar
The storm it comes
Like a conductor's baton
Trees sway, from side to side
The storm now upon us
With no place to hide
Spinning like a merry go round
Ravaging all in its path
Looking into the terrifying eye
See nature unleash its wrath
Then the sound of silence
Lucent blue skies so clear
Calm befalls around us
The storm now gone and also our fear

The Storm

In grey skies above
Darkened clouds appear
A storm approaching
So very near
A clap of thunder
Such a turbulent sound
Forks of lightening
Hit the ground
As an orchestra playing
Pounding on timpani drums
Thunders resonant roar
The storm it comes
Like a conductor's baton
Trees sway, from side to side
The storm now upon us
With no place to hide
Spinning like a merry go round
Ravaging all in its path
Looking into the terrifying eye
See nature unleash its wrath
Then the sound of silence
Lucent blue skies so clear
Calm befalls around us
The storm now gone and also our fear

I loved the electric nature of this poem.
I miss the thunder, here in the Pacific Northwest
it rains a great deal but rarely thunders, unless
a tornado touched down, I will not wish another lol.

Incredible nature write, I would see where you do not often get big storms how it would be a bit spooky.
Mother nature is a powerful woman!

Hugs
Michelle
