Clouds appear as the sun tucks away

Darkness surrounds the atmospheric hush

Ears are overwhelmed with a booming crush

The serienty once found is now a fearful dismay 

Crashing lights fill up the sky with a fiery display

The ground is met with a flooding gush

Everything once found is cloaked by a scarring flush

 

The rain settles back inside its puddled home

Silence overcomes yet again

Those destroyed will see light as it comes

Or be sent on an eternal roam 

With anxious watches for the thunderous reign 

Until then the sun will sing a cheery hum

&quot;You know you&rsquo;re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is &ndash; wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you&rsquo;re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself.&quot;

Simply marvellous! ...I don't know what else to say!! I'm speechless. I could picture every scene you described. I fell into deep and dived in, I got surrounded with all the felongs and emotions overwhelming this wonderful poem. It was so poetic, so deep and very descriptive. I love the rhyme scheme that gave a beautiful touch of harmony and musicality throughout the entire poem. I can easily say that this si so relatable and truly left a deep impact on me. Please keep it up and never stop writing, you are so talented ^_^ 5 Stars right away :D Thank you so much for the inspiration and for sharing this masterpiece.
