STORM

Rustling are the leaves as the wind whips past

Energy fills the air

Distant rumble pounds the beat

Light dances to the tune

Coolness intertwines with the melody of warmth

Forcing the clouds to march on their chosen path

Pouring out their essence upon a hungry earth

Landscapes changing as the performance passes

The crack of electricity altering the show

Ferocious is it at its very core

Yet tranquil peace in all its glory

Life scrambles back as the curtain calls

Riding waves of cool moist air

Distant rumble pounds the beat

I like the symmetry of the "distant rumble" lines, and the metaphor of melody for the coolness and warmth of the convection. I also enjoy the little intricacy of the forced but "chosen path"... that is intuitive, thanks.

Quite a sensate poem: I enjoyed the way your `Distant rumble` lines first heald the approaching storm, then help echo it`s way out of the scene. Well done.
