Under the gun for severe thunderstorms later tonight...
Gathering forces plot their attack, waiting for just the right moment to strike; under cover of darkness would be nice. The only warning would be distant cannon, then the high scream of wind: nations at war? No--nighttime thunderstorms.
(c) 2007, Karla Dorman. (2/23)

Ah, Karla, we do live with the thunderstorms out here in Texas, don't we! It's just Sky Mother and Sky Father bowling in the Star Web, and that ball sure does rumble down the lane!
i'm always in awe of nighttime thunderstorms ... they have such a sense of power and majesty ... though i realize under the Texas night sky they must also appear ominousness in intensity and overwhelming in their potential effect ... keep covered and safe, Karla ...
nobody does thunderstorm poems like you, Karla :) you're going to hate me for this, but some are due here Sunday and I can't wait. I love 'em. so long as they are minus damaging winds or tornados... take care, Dawn
It is always an indeed pleasure to read such fine well written artistic work. I love coming out to my favorite den where you all inspire me so much every day. What I read share and know is such a wonderful view. Stay focused and always write on.
I am actually looking forward after this cold but wishy washy winter we've weathered, to some summer storms and rain and thunder squalls. I do so love the lightning

Great description. We're under the gun here too. You are definitely developing your "voice" in verse, so much stronger than the last time I read your words!!! Keep reaching!

I love the way you put these images!
Yes...summer storms can be frightening. I enjoy summer the best
of all the seasons, except for the severe storms.
Karla I enjoyed reading your "Under Cover of Darkness"
This write had such a mysteriousness about it, however a wonderful offering, something to contemplate also.
The Wholly Book of Exodus is humorous adult literature that features adult language, situations and content. It is the companion book of Jay Dubya's The Wholly Book of Genesis that satires the entire first book of the Bible.

Love this one!
