Evening's Entertainment
A poem for those who enjoy watching a summer storm.
Rated:

Avg Rating: (30)
Warm summer wind stirs arrant leaves
Rain sprinkles down on painted eaves
Have you seen todays bulletin?
They say a cold fronts moving in.

Rain and wind are already here
Thunder and hail they say are near
lightning spits across pitch black skies
A tornado!! run for your lives

Twisting timbers, warping wood
I'd be somewhere else if I could
Nature's fury, what can we do?
Be at awe and respectful too

So sit right back, enjoy that show
And take this with you as you go
Remember one small fact at least...
Behind the beauty, there hides the beast.

*Note1* props go out to my hubby for helping me with the last stanza. He's the greatest!!!
