Rolling Thunder


Clouds that create an ominous fear
As the thunder makes one stop and hear
A curtain of rain comes into sight
The blue sky is now as black as night
Though there are no stars to break the black
Lightning is the only thing that brings the light back
But the light is so quick and fleeting
That thunder is heard as the lightning is retreating
This great booming noise fills the air
Causing everything to stand on edge even ones hair
This is one of the beauties of nature
But it is also one of its deadliest creatures
Thunder follows a great flash of light
And gives many children a fright
But we know that there is always an end
A rainbow greeting us like an old friend.

The Light of the Night


The Sun slowly creeps out of sight
Reds and oranges bleed into the night
A bright black is falling upon the land
As the moon rises above the reddish orange band
This is the time where the night is brightest
Because the darkness cannot fade the lightest 
Part of the day, where the light is slowly going away
When white turns to gray
But gray turns to black
This black corruption takes the night back
To its dark state of no sun nor light
It creates the darkness of night
Where the owls hunt and cry
While we sleep to try 
To avoid the dark murky
 Color that covers the sky.
