Shadows of night fall
Romancing the Earth below
With poetic flair

A rumble pierced the quiet
The sound began to grow
I knew exactly what was coming
A storm crept in, ever so slow
Louder, as the raindrops fell
Accompanied by such clatter
The sound man had the volume up
I was afraid the glass would shatter
Still I sat there watching
As the sky lit up, rather jagged
I waited by the window
Another bolt of lightning, staggered
Playing with the land below
The clouds released their heat
The spectacle above my head
Was quite the incredible feat
Still, as slowly as it settled in
It departed twice as fast
With a gentle rolling thunder
The storm was calm, at last

To the hum of busy bees
Creating music

Sparks, that flare from flowers, flame
Fires ignite, in this realm of shame
Incantations, watch the petals burn
Enchantment gone, forever spurned
Desire, explodes, like fireworks
Shattering, quickly, as a demon smirks
Fearing the dark, no light where you stand
You slip, ever slowly, into evil’s command

Sung high above the treetops
A towhee’s calling
