A Stormy Night

By Tryphena Louise Williams (c) 2010

A storm it blew, throughout the night
Its howling winds, no moon in sight

Trees are torn, as they thrashed around
Battered branches scattered, on the ground

Lightning flashes, light the sky
As airy shadows, dance on by

Crashing sounds, things fall and tumble
Objects flying, along they rumble

Down came the rain, the wind it blew
Ripping and tearing, its pathway through

The powerful storm, my home it battered
An uneasy feeling, my gardens shattered

There's not a lot that, one can do
Until the storm, it passes through

The storm it brings, a waking dream
Maybe my life, isn’t what it seems

The winds of change, they let you know
What is to keep, and what must go
