Thunder Snow

Lightning is not only a spring- and summertime event; if conditions are unstable enough, although rare, it can happen in winter.


Poem Artwork

Lightning makes a rare appearance
in snow filled skies:
wearing a coat of diamonds, she
sparkles in our eyes;
thunder grudgingly follows
on her tail;
disappearing behind a curtain of white,
on wind's gale ...
the diva, satisfied, has graced us
with her presence.

(c) 2006, Karla Dorman.

She graced me with her presence, not that long ago - she also scared my dogs quite severely - she's quite something, this diva - as is this poem.

Here we get hail and lightning in the winter sometimes and there can be snow falling at the same time...as you say, it is a rare apperance though. Beautiful images in this fine poem, Karla.
Take care,
Sherry

Lightning in snow-filled skies is the gentle answer of the Goddess which turns away the wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger. Thunder Snow is a great example of how it effects people in the way we talk to them, which is my metaphor. Sometimes thunder is the greatest silencer in the world with a gentle answer. Very Cool write, Karla.

Whether they are long or short, your poems have substance and that is good.

(((Karla)))

Vivid imagery in this compelling nature piece; you bring back memories of the thundersnows we have experienced both in Ohio and here in Texas! Scary stuff; it's something you don't quite expect, that is for DARN sure! Very well done; brava!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your twin, Karen Lynn. :D
