One day in the past,
I was asleep unaware of the storm,
Coming up exceedingly fast,
Then I was rudely awakened by its rath,
My electronics were going incomparably wild,
And somewhere was a whimper of a child,
I felt the heat of fire as lighting struck a tree nearby,
My stereo was zapped into demo,
As I scolded myself for not writing my wishes in my memo,
The stormclouds effortlessly unleash their terror,
As I listened to the unearthly pounding of the rain,
Thunder, lightning, & pouring rain shook the earth without any gain,
Thunder rumbled & roared as a lightning bolt struck the ground,
I curled up into a ball as yet one more lightning bolt came at first smoothly to a deeply intense to-the-ground fall,
Then as quick as a storm came it stopped as the rain came slowly & barely to a patter leaving the grass flat & dying,
Thunder roared extremely loud in dismay,
Sending me a last warning that he'd be back one day,
Lightning left his message intensely clear and struck the powerlines dead and left me in the dark,
But I was smart & clicked on my flashlight and had the last laugh!
