I was inspired to post this poem after reading RSWEll's poem Twister The Catastrophe. Eerie Silence The air holds an eerie silence Black, angry clouds boil across skies Winds whistle and begin to howl Birds tumble around as each flies A fear tightens in the stomach Somethings different in this storm The feeling of danger coming Eyes widen as the winds take form In slow motion it now descends Frozen to the spot, filled with fear A prayer tears from within the soul Watching it destroy all held dear Seconds become eternity Advancing monster growls and roars Filling air with pieces of life Than into the dark skies it soars An eerie silence fills the air Winds settle, now becoming calm Breath escapes, presure releases A prayer of thanks sends healing balm Karen Torbiak 2001© Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |
