    Mysterious and Daunting

    Some clouds came a rumbling across the horizon today,
    They were mysterious and daunting is all I could say.
    Far from the distance swiftly they draw nearer,
    Escorting internal noises drift increasingly closer.
    One by one, vapors cover the sky,
    Darkness increased it was not shy.
    Until all the lights luster made haste in horror,
    Submerging into lackluster amidst detail no more.
    Then came a loud crash likewise a bright flash,
    Instantaneously light and sound became a critical clash.
    With a current of air, there came a curtain of rain,
    As if the clouds filled with tears began to drain.
    The ground became wet nothing-remained dry,
    As streams of condensation pooled then cascaded by.
    Again a loud sound and more motion and light,
    Looking ubiquitously about not a creature in sight.
    In a flurry of commotion and an outbreak of fury,
    Not an object left untouched everything dreary.
    Then in the midst of disorder, there soon came order,
    As the haze broke and clouds floated away.

    I love nature poems, this was so enjoyable to read! I have a poem about a storm too, so this was a pleasure to read, great imagery! "A critical clash" and "With a current of air, there came a curtain of rain" were lines that really grabbed me...thanks for sharing this!

    I really like this! The only hiccup I felt is the flow irregular reading as first person present. Great write!

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
