Storm
Thunder
In my mind
Creates visions
Ones that do linger
Forcing me to escape
Into my own awareness
A place, profound, as is subtle
Yet, to truly understand your fate
One must make sense of their very own soul

This is my first attempt at an etheree poem. Info on how to write one can be found HERE. Many thanks to Helene Vaillant of Willow Poetry for creating in this form and to Colleen Chesebro for researching and adding this to her weekly poetry challenge.

This was the sky moments before a huge thunderstorm barreled its way through. Still going, too.

It came down in buckets
While wind blew with rage
A sky filled with lightning
The storm, center stage

Her thunder was deafening
Couldn’t hear myself think
Why on Earth would nature
Put up such a stink

Sounds, like a freight train,
Roaring, past the door
The whole house is shaking
I can’t take anymore

Calmer days need take heed
She is mighty, riding the skies
A figure of destructive fury
She wears as an artful guise

The color of sunlight, so bright
She’ll shine her light, on a dare
Deceptive is she, quite willingly
Hiding in the clouds, elsewhere

She writes, to drive away reality

Lost in worlds, of immortality

Searching passages of ancient rhyme

To drown the sorrows of life, unkind

Once written on a single page

Smeared about, by senseless rage

This story, penned, becomes a blur

The one that’s known to only her

The storm raged
thunderous explosions
like the Fourth of July
without its colors
rattled windows
dislocated, limbs fell
against the glass
or did they knock
asking me, to let them in
shelter from the battle
I don’t know, shades drawn
lights out, I could not see
seated in the darkness
only my shadow reflected
on the wall, as lightning
danced across the skies
illuminated, then black again
ice pellets, echoed,
the noise, like machine guns,
ravaging the night, a hunter
claimed his prey
then unexpected silence
the only sound heard
was the peaceful rain,
gently falling.

a truce…………

His Anger

His anger
A burning rage
A self-inflicted wound

Nights pass without comfort
The explosions of bitterness
Erupt into delusion

The madness shutters his thoughts
Pushing him
An empty heart
Pushing back
Until it no longer fights

A vacant chamber
Of violence and resentment
An endless spasm
Until the nightmare is over
Until the battle is done
