TEMPEST

The storm came as the opera of the skies
Even the rain came in orchestrated rhythm
Lightning lit the skies in brilliant streaks
It gave a surging rise to my heart
Resounding and rippling without frontier
The wind ran as if it has been restrained for a time
A strange song, howling yearned for a melody
Carnage ensued, trees writhing and flailing
Groans of pain carried away by the wind
An impenetrable salvo of bullets
Livid black clouds reared up like a cobra
Lightning mercilessly onto the pitiful scene
Cut through the sky not unlike burning venom
Storms brewed on the cold horizon
The noon darkness and damp-smelling air
As thunder rumbled in the distance
Bolts of lightning cracked the sky
Jagged flashes of pure light cast a glow
Amidst the wind unleashing a torrent of its own
The trees bend and moan in wrath
More wicked than any in living memory
Destroying everything, avenging the forgotten
