Thunderstorm

by stillmomsgirl   Aug 23, 2008


A flash of lightning
A cowering child
Tonight the weather's
not so mild

A frightened dog
Under the bed
Hoping not to
bump his head

Harsh winds
Fallen trees
The storm suddenly
starts to ease

Mother holds
The child so tight
Hoping they will
sleep tonight

Child asleep
in mother's arms
Tonight they are not
in any harm

    I'm with Ashley. I didn't see the humour in it, but it did fit the "for kids" sub-heading superbly. A very delicate but powerful piece, I thoroughly enjoyed.
