A fierce storm blew through Toronto last night. I have tried to describe it.

Roaring cannon 
Of 
The gods of storm 
Bursts of flame 
Fill darkened sky 
Sheets of lightning 
Pink - yellow - white 
Canopy 
The sky 
Marching rain 
A million boots 
In waves 
Pound the thirsty earth 
Furious - fearsome 
Angry gods 
Do battle 
Trembling our souls 
Comes upon us in surprise 
Exploding 
Our ears 
Searing 
Our eyes 
As we watch 
In cowered awe 
Storm
