" Stormy Weather "

 

I am in this very bad spot today

Living on the edge of a forest
Surrounded by tall trees
Which bend gracefully
In stormy weather
Often break across lines
Leaving me without power
When the air becomes heavy
With impending attack
And visual electricity
Fills the sky
Followed by the crash
Of displacement
One…
One - hundred and two…
One - hundred and three…
One - hundred and…
I count it out
Just to see
How close it was
I let droplets
Of rain fall onto me
And wonder
How it will feel
When the powerful
Lightning
Finally
Hits
Me

Loved This one Tinka
Geart imagery
But I don't think I want to be
Any wheres near you
When you get struck by lightning

I hope it never hits you if the muse you share pages with keeps writing hits like this, but I do feel the power of the storm surrounding you.

When lightning strikes
Shocking life on earth
With highpowered pikes
Defence becomes dearth
If only man could trap
Free power from this tap

I've often wondered the very same thing, Tinky, since I've been out and about in many a violent storm. Quite a Poem.
