within a whisper...

The clouds began to churn.
The wind pushed the palm trees back.
A bolt of lightening flashed,
And the tree before me snapped.

The wind was loudly whisteling
Its strange, familiar song.
Thunder shook the earth-
Staying far too long.

The rain began to fall
Like needles from the sky.
It stung my back and shoulders,
And I fought the urge to cry.

I thought I wouldn’t make it-
But as quickly as it came,
It left me standing there,
Ending its evil game.


 One touch of nature makes the whole world kin.
-William Shakespeare
