In the distance is the sound of rolling thunder, <br /> <br />A sound that makes you look for something to hide under. <br /> <br />Dark clouds race across the sinister night sky, <br /> <br />As the wind howls and like a banshee cries. <br /> <br />The thunder ever present comes closer still, <br /> <br />To intimidate and terrify and give a feeling of ill. <br /> <br />Lightening now illuminates the sky with a blue eerie spectre, <br /> <br />First in this, then that, then in your own frightening sector. <br /> <br />All now combine, lightening, thunder and howling winds, <br /> <br />Panic and fear are evident as natures turmoil begins. <br /> <br />The hours till dawn seem so very far away, <br /> <br />So under your pillow you are determined to stay!<br /><br />Ruth warren<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/rolling-thunder/
