Storms in the Distance...

Poem Artwork

Rumbling heard,

Grumbling not absurd,

Tumbling are clouds, sky blurred,

Mumbling as this storm is the third…

 

Flash lightening,

Clash of Gods “fightening,”

Gnash of teeth, eyes whitening,

Lash of the whip, nights frightening…

 

Fearful though storms maybe,

Tearful is the baby,

Cheerful am I, not a crybaby…

Cheerful, is good; much better than Skeered, as you was before. But stay low, Bro; lots of flyin debris.

Just stay hid under the bed like always, Ed, and it will go away. Haha My wife (rest her soul) was terrified of the weather. She was raised that way. How I got her to ride out all those hurricanes with me I'll never know. She just said to me once, "Well, if we die, we die together. That was her way of thinking. When the 'cane was close she'd break out the fifth of Jim Beam and have at it. Not me. I wanted to be sober in case we needed at least one straight-thinking head.
