One Stormy Night
A night storm across the lake
Make swirling dark clouds rise
For crashing thunder's shake
Make going outside most unwise
Long the lightning's make
A blinding in my eyes
And causes some heartache
To shutter my worried sighs
Now lost in dreams forsake
In a boat to make capsize
I search for safe windbreak
Sheltered harbor I surmise
Calmness clears at daybreak
To a gentle soft sunrise
Make swirling dark clouds rise
For crashing thunder's shake
Make going outside most unwise
Long the lightning's make
A blinding in my eyes
And causes some heartache
To shutter my worried sighs
Now lost in dreams forsake
In a boat to make capsize
I search for safe windbreak
Sheltered harbor I surmise
Calmness clears at daybreak
To a gentle soft sunrise

Dramatic poetry, Y4Y.

Storms are such great inspiration for poetry and literary thoughts. Thanks for sharing.
How well you tell this tale of personal danger - it's a blessing that you are still around to relate those terrifying events.
Best wishes
