The Sound of the Storm
By: Elizabeth Skiles
Flash! Boom! Crack!
A tree is split
Spoom!
Water is electrified
A storm is coming
The sound of enormous boulders
rolling down a mountainside
A giant's foot step
echoing everywhere
pitter patter pitter
pock marks appear on the water
a frenzy of droplets
racing to meet the ground
Thunder Booms
Lightening Burns
Rain Beats on the lake
A storm is here.
