Lightening Strikes Lightening strikes in jagged flight Thunder rolls and booms the night Rain falls down in wind and roar And I am spellbound with the awe I watch behind a window pane Watching drops of rain insane Streaking down the window glass Seeking paths of quick surpass And on the road the puddles come Rolling down the grade till plumb Bringing up the tide of swell Until it reaches where I dwell It’s then I wish the rain would stop Not another drop would drop For I am helpless at this stage And cannot deal with natures rage It’s then I hear a whispered prayer Sometimes heard but very rare |

Hey you! Carpe' Diem and all that! Why not get out there butt neked and enjoy nature's fury. There is nothing as exhilarating as a great lightning storm! Oh...better wear shoes? I hope it IS raining there you need it, and it is hot as Haiti here and driving me crazy. Gee, if I wanted heat I would live there!  Oh wait a second, this isn't about Isabel is it?  |
