The Release

Two nights ago
the dark began to wail
like a delicate child
raging from a skinned knee.

In His new comicbook
it seemed God
had transformed into
Electricman.
Harsh bolts
began bleeding from His palms.

Seconds passed,
and God bellowed.
He was a roaring lion
announcing his presence
to His kingdom below.

The roaring ceased.
The great superhero
huffed
ceaselessly.
The outside maple
bent at his will.

Piercing and unannounced
came the sterlie tears
pleading with hope
for a lesser wail
and calmer maples.

Lying there,
cushioned by trapped feathers
I heard Him.
I felt his release.
So powerful,
I began to pray
innocently adding
to another wailing eve.

Welcome to Passions!  Sit back, relax, read, post a poem...I think you're going to like it around here!

If I whisper, will you listen?...
I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound.
