WATCHING LIGHTNING

A SONNET EXPERIMENT -INSPIRED BY - I LOVE A RAINY NIGHT

Watching lightning when it lights up the sky

Shooting stars sparring clouds in close combat

Wide screen video captured in 4K format

Light incendiary Fragmented High

Nature’s photo-bombs that entice the eye

Thunder screams expletives with violent might

Water colors grey, the canvas of night

Rain percussion on the roof lullaby

How does it end my friend? Tomorrow comes

Softly to soothe the wounds of Yesterday

Comforting Chai held tight in-between thumbs

Perspective change The Potter takes new clay

Spins the same wheel over crest fallen crumbs

Storm recedes reveals hope of a new way
