Comfort in the Storm

Thunderstorms the other night inspired this one. :)


Poem Artwork

Lightning walks the sky
on skeletal legs,
skins the clouds back with
bony fingers, and
releases the flood.

And I lay awake,
trembling in fear.

However, there is
comfort in the storm:
lightning tenderly
brushes the tears from
his child's swollen face.

'Hush, darling; Daddy's
here; you're safe with me.'

No need to worry;
I relax and fall
sound asleep, assured,
resting in the peace
my Father's arms bring.

(c) 2006, Karla Dorman.

This pen awakens many stories from my youth. me and my brothers and sisters were quiet during these thunder storms ad no amount of sophiticated mumbo jumbo would quieten a scared heart. Thanks for the smile just now. Susan

The weather, i.e., the elements are becoming your forte. You are very good at beinging the storm to us. Or the lack of a storm. The Elements R You.

I believe this is one of your best Karla. The first stanza is brilliantly imaginative and poetic.

Ah yes - the comfort of Fathers arms! I agree!!!

Bravo!
