The Raging Storm

So powerful the thunder-
the lightning so intent.
Electrifying it burns the sky-
Making its decent.
The thunder rolls - its echos-
piercing across the sky-
The wind howls its mysterious
moans - as it goes rushing by.

It's magnificent beauty - the
raging , tumultuous storm-
Bending the trees - designing it's
own form.
Standing in it's majesty - I feel so
humble and small-
The wind, the rains, the booming
thunder...I just love it all!

The inner struggles that we have -
so much heartache an pain-
The monster's screaming within us-
Our own storm and rain.
We have our battles we must conquer-
raging within our heart-
Thunders crashing...lightning striking-
tearing us apart!

The storms of life engulf us ...we just
don't know what to do-
Then throu the storm...we see a little
light breaking through-
The tempest gone ...the winds slow
down....alas...the storms go.....
The sky shines glorious as it holds its
prize...a beautiful rainbow!

I love any poem about rain and thunderstorms. They take me back to childhood when I would sit and watch them rage from the safety of grandma's covered porch.

Just wonderful! As already said, good comparisons. I think that everyone knows about the storms of life and the turmoil that they can cause. We have talked about the storms of life many times, and I still do not understand why a complete angel (meaning you Linda)is compelled to end up with so many storms in her life. great write either way sweetness. Love ya, Ross

The merging of the first two verses into the other two is very good integration. You blend in a sence of urgency and let it settle in a rainbow of inner peace.

I feel this storm raging deep inside. It drives many questions, each starting with WHY. Thank you for this one.
