Threatening dark force~
Angry waves splash on fine beach~
Howls to the black sky
Yet I grin, fascinated~
Its soothing voice calms taut nerves

pls do read "Two As One" by u_gene and "Soft Memories" by Lost Dreamer too--both are very good attempts..... ")

Turbulent and calming at the same time.

Kailie, You did a very nice job here on this as far as I can see. I am not that experienced to really know, and truly do not feel it my cup of tea, so my first will more than likely be my last for now at least. I leave it to the Master's Gene, and yourself to delight my eyes with your talent.

Very good words used to depict the feel of tension and calm. but I do wonder how that could ever happen...   How could you feel nervous and calm at the same time?
