This poem only reads right when the picture of Pulpit Rock is displayed, then the reader can see the music of the storm Suicide I stand atop Pulpit Rock The caves of limestone, vibrating drums Crashing waves of sound in symphony Taught seaweed old and brown above the tide Whistling with the wind, the strings of a violin Shingle moving with the tide, applause As the waves come marching in A squall, a sudden shower of heavy rain Dropping the curtain across Pulpit Rock The surging tide lifts, music once again Crashing of the cymbals, a thunderclap Of sound that fills the sky Flashing lightning spotlights the maestro As the symphonies crescendo passes by Pilpit Rock, where the symphony died. |

I can't see the picture, but I heard the music die. Excellent. Alison |
