Lightning can strike twice
Pealing thunder growled
with the rumble of a runaway flash
booming lightning bolts
fling billion volt mortars helter-skelter
glare ricocheting illuminated verve
ominous tolling crashes
oblivious to gravity
throw reverberated reflection
startling charcoal grey billowing nimbus
blackened rolling storm clouds ignite cannons
fire cloud to ground bolts
hotter than sun’s mantle
drenching rain shards
shattering the silence of the dawn
roaring through the awakening quietude
holding on for life
singer of high poems resonates
echoed litanies upon the impearled threshold of the dawn
coyote running naked in the rain; bearing witness ,…
God’s natural gifts bestowed
mitigate man’s visions of grandeur
