Thunderstorms


Friday rolled around again,

raining down on the land

with the fresh smell of dirt.

I love the way

A good thunderstorm

rolls over all my senses

Lightning so stark yet vibrant,

Fire from the heavens

Thunder as it rumbles,

Playing drums in my heart

The smell of life,

Rich and peaty

I can almost taste the electricity

as I feel the rain that nourishes my skin.

I look at the dark grey clouds

As they cover my happy blue sky

Enjoying the peace from

Safe within my nest,

Feathers smooth and dry
