Thunderstorm

A poem by Sarah Michal | 8/30/2008

Raw energy,
of an unpleasant kind,
Pervades the air,
and tickles your mind.

Dancing over the sky,
are greenish hues,
Except for tonight,
It should be blue.

A flicker of lighting,
on the edge of the horizon.
The thick air stirs,
Clouds cover the sun.

A hot breeze,
flows from the west;
A grumble, a thunder,
beginning unrest.

Animals squeal,
and together they huddle.

Repeating the same one never;
sparkling stars sprinkled across black leather.

Imagination going wild;
colors dancing like a child.

Rippling like a brook;
an illustration from a book.

Splashes brash and bold,
glittery and cold.

Gently, swiftly swirling;
