The lightning flashed, and lifted <br />The lids of heaven apart, <br />The fiery thunder rolled you <br />All night long through my heart. <br /> <br />From dreams of you at dawn <br />I rose to the window ledge: <br />The storm had passed away, <br />The lake lapped on the sedge. <br /> <br />The lyre of heaven trembled <br />Still with the thought of you, <br />The twilight on the waters, <br />And all my spirit, too.<br /><br />John Hall Wheelock<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-thunder-shower/
