Waking up to a humbling moment
stealing your breath away ;
leaving you sleepy eyed ... awestruck
Lightning can strike twice
Pealing thunder growled
with the rumble of a runaway flash
booming lightning bolts
fling billion volt mortars helter-skelter
glare ricocheting illuminated verve
weighty tolling crashes
oblivious to gravity
hurling reverberated reflection
ominous charcoal grey billowing nimbus
blackened rolling storm clouds roil
ignite ether cannons
fire cloud to ground bolts
hotter than sun’s mantle
drenching rain shards
shattering the silence of the dawn
roaring through the awakening quietude
holding on for life
ignite ether cannons
singer of high poems resonates
echoed litanies
upon the impearled threshold
of the dawn ,..
coyote running naked in the rain ;
bearing witness ,..
God’s natural gifts bestowed
mitigate man’s visions of grandeur
upon the impearled threshold
of the dawn ,..
bearing witness ,..
