When there is silence outside under the snow <br />I wish I could be a stone watching from below <br />The cold masses would provide me with peace <br />A state of mind I would love to increase <br /> <br />When there is a sandstorm arriving in a big cloud <br />I want to be able to withstand it alone in a crowd <br />The sand would surround me and rub against my skin <br />Like an innocent warm embrace rocking my body within <br /> <br />When there is a thunderstorm with great force <br />I want to use the lightening as an energy source <br />The electricity would rejuvenate my tired soul <br />The loud thunder would chase me out of my black whole <br /> <br />When a hurricane is turning the sky pitch black <br />I want to be outside and bathe in its violent attack <br />The winds would carry me to distant lands and oceans <br />And the rains would nurture my starved emotions <br /> <br />When a storm crowns the ocean with white foam <br />Swallowed by the water I would never miss home <br />Crashing waves would destroy every vessel at sea <br />But I understand the hunger and can't disagree <br /> <br />When the sun shines bright and it's peaceful outside <br />I could disappear behind large shadows or hide <br />The tall grass would cradle me until I'm fast asleep <br />Dreaming of the forces of nature for me to keep <br /> <br />© 2011<br /><br />Kristina Louisa Carr<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/forces-of-nature-5/
