lightning strike

in the grand theatre
opening in the Heaven,s
drifting across the sky,
cloaked in darkness

whistling unseen voices
darkened within rage,
nature's forces
at work
rising wind salute

in static
hair raising
falling down the spine
banging drums
growling almighty roars

grumbling unforeseen forces
churning in it's might,
an earth shattering clap
applauding trees bend
wind blowing gale

lighting up dark
bowing to light
in strike daylight
unmerciful power

battle in darkened clouds
alight candy floss
falling rain crystals
in sparkling diamonds
lightning strikes

as the thunder roars
frightening night
rumbling drum beats
upon nature's might
you strike

Hi Liam,
another fine write.
Enjoyed this bud. The thunder but the roaring voices of those who are about to do battle for the earths own, the lightning but the flash when steel meets steel in deadly earnest. That was an ancient way at looking at it and who is to say it was not so? The fierceness of the storm is captured in your write Liam, you give us the very power of the heaven's. Close my eyes and I can see it, the storm, the mother of the Dark Man.
Exceedingly good write.
Catch you later Liam.
Your friend,
MIKE.
Catch you on the flip side.
