Fireworks
The humidity over the past weekend
With the southeaster wind
Are tell tale signs of a storm brewing
By Monday, night fall
The rumbling sky followed by lightning
Then the heavens poured
Thoughts of tsunami and natural disasters
Took a hold of my mind
I am a strong swimmer
But who is to say I will survive
Should the valley where I live
Be flooded
Shaking my head I focussed on the beauty
Of the event playing off
Let me embrace it
The symphony of sound
Thunder and lightning
Like fireworks!
My thought with those
Who have no proper shelter from the storm?
The horses neighing uneasily in their stalls
The dogs howling from their kennels
The felines restless eyes big ears alert
And this is how I fell asleep
Knowing that Almighty is protecting
