The storm [Week 27 entry]
The storm


Shadows wriggle against the walls
as trees sway in the fresh'ning breeze
that shakes their branches to and fro
creating kites of brownish leaves

As storm clouds pass across the sun
shadows wriggle against the walls
first dark, then pale, then growing rare
as thunderheads fill heaven's halls

A gentle patter, then a roar
prompts the testing of flashlight beams
shadows wriggle against the walls
as down the window water streams

A mighty flash marks power's doom
as sparks form brilliant waterfalls
a lit match touches wicks and then
shadows wriggle against the walls.
