a most violent storm,
the thunder
burst
from the heavens.
With curiosity I stood,
the dazzling light
entirely reduced
to the laws of electricity.

A slow progression,
a ghostly limbo.
Light and darkness
over water.

Nature

and tranquilized my mind.
The woods and clouds bade me peace.
I resolve to remember the effect,
the sublime ecstasy to the soul, the light and joy of nature.
