An Evening with Nature

Beneath the dark sky
Here solitary I sit
Alone, in a shack
Long forgotten
Lost in the jungle
Within the eye of a storm

A roar a crash
Thunder booms
Lightning strikes
The velvet sky is ripped
By bright silver rods
The orchestra of nature

The screaming winds
Among the branches
Of swaying trees
In frenzied dance
With enraged screams
Breaking ripping branches

Beyond the hill
The wild dogs howl
In fear and anger
At the storm
The wild cats yowl
The primates scream

The roars and shrieks
Of the hurricane
Spearing the earth
With its grim strength
Uproot all that’s near
Deep screams thunders as it flew

When nature settle on its peace
cuddle weariness in slumber
Stand I in weakness trembling
Awe and wonder at nature’s tranquillity
The night I spent is daylight now
Rest the world in gentle grace again

Lonely shack hidden
by broken twigs
In farewell stare
as I walk away.
