Thunderstorm

by nikki   Jul 6, 2006


The crack of lightening,
The boom of thunder,
The whisper of wind,
The crackle of leaves.

The pounding of rain on my window,
Lures me to sleep,
Bright flashes of lightening,
Wake me in a cold sweat.

I look out my window,
I see swaying trees,
Waving hello or maybe goodbye,
The sight of rain catches my eyes.

I look up and see the blackest sky,
I've ever seen,
Lightening catches my eyes,
Then I see a spark of fire.

Fire quickly gathers around me,
I'm trapped in the blazing heat,
I think I'm going to die then i realize,
I've let my imagination run away again.

    Excellent first stanza. I think you can make it better by rewriting the last two stanza so it's just "nature"

    Nikki --
    Overall, this was a good poem. It held a lot of detail and imagery, which is good. But the flow wasn`t steady, and that kind of messed me up. But otherwise, it was good. 4/5

    Love Much,
