thunderstorm, thunderstorm
show me what you are
reveal the power you have got
the one that makes me stand in awe

I'm your kin
lightning in my eyes
wind in my hair and
raindrops running in my veins

thunderstorm, thunderstorm
fill the sky with clouds
let the trees dance to your wind
send down your rain and lightning
show me who I am

    nice poem eMMI

    Thunder, Lightning n' Wind
    Mother Nature's cleansing
    Like waves that wash away the past
    Nothing, nothing
    but Mother Nature truly lasts

    We are but a sand pebble in the shore
    yet we know
    we are much more

    It is up to each of us
    to discover the truth of who we really are
    and how we came to be
    on this planet earther, 3rd from a star
    Create Good Things........

    No, the thanks should go to your first!

    You started it. I like to interact with other poets as we indeed a different creed as we speak a language like no other.

    If you'd like to add onto to what I wrote, it may continue, or end, if the thoughts and ideas have said their intended message.

    I am honored that you like my reaction to your first action.

    hmm. now you're making me blush. :)

    those are some mighty fine words you're talking there.
    I'm usually just very very happy if someone takes the time to comment on my work so when someone interacts with it - I'm off the roof! :)

    I love thunderstorms, sometimes it is like you can feel them sucking the energy right out of you. Gives me chills. I like your poem.

    thunderstorms are amazing! this poem was inspired by one that me and my mother watched and listened in our gardenswing. :)

    you're right. but at the same time I feel like they give me energy.

    thank you. :)

    My own little piece of inspiration....


    Quiet before me
    Your breath against my face
    Coolness, the air about me is changing
    What will you bring, I anticipate your arrival

    Draw from within me
    You take something from inside
    A chill climbs through my spine
    Magnificence of nature

    Darkness, uncertainty lies in wait
    Droplets of rain, slowly at first
    Rustling of leaves, wind of the trees
    Speak to me, tell me your secrets

    Sorted sounds and wind
    Breaking waves and flashes of light
    Destruction always in possibility
    Upon approach of my small self

    There is no harness of your power
    Fleeting moments in time
    Your appearance is short
    Only to reappear again in another form

    The sun glimmers in broken sky
    The time was ours only
    I watched you
    You made yourself known to me

    thank you...again you got me thinking about this. Where I live our storms get pretty intense sometimes, but we are in the long hot/dry months so I must be missing them.

    :)

    well, the storms can be pretty intense here too. not always though.. this one that inspired that poem was a big one though. not long but very very intense.

    well, it's summer so it's quite hot here too. so I'm glad we got a little water when we did, it really cleared up the air. :)

    Mmmm, love a good thunderstorm, eMMI-lou! :) It's storming outside my window right now, actually. I'd love to go out and let it pour down on me! Hee Hee! My little sis was just saying the other day that she used to think I was weird because when I was a teen, whenever it rained, I'd go walking. I'd come home soaked and revitalized and looking weird, I guess. LOL! :D

    It's good to feel nature, be a part of it, remind yourself that you really are one with it all. :) I liked your thunderstorm. :)

    I'm superduper glad you liked it loveliest BE. loadsa hugs to you my dear!!!
    nature is so amazing. I remember seeing the movie Pocahontas for the first time and when she's telling the guy how indians are one with nature I was thinking: "yeah, that makes total sense!" :):)

    And I totally agree with you--the native indians seem to have it right! It's a shame their traditions and ways of thinking aren't embraced by more. :)

    And hey! {{Pearl_Jam_Necklace}} is freaking happy!!! YAY! I like the sounds of that, chicky! :)

    :):) indeed indeed we are. manymanymany hugs to you lovely. :):):)

    yeh. all of us running and acting silly!! :D:)

    you are absolutely correct. :) I should catch up on my reading about them and their customs. :) when I was younger I was really interested about native indians. but that enthusiasm was set aside a little by my new love for wolves. now I've got many new interests but I feel like I should awake a few of the older ones too. :):)
