Thunder and lightning
dance
a dangerous
paso doble
Quick and nimble lightning
grabs her bright skirts
and stomps
sending sparks flying
Handsome thunder follows behind
on his knees
his melodic voice trying
to lull his vivacious partner,
but instead, making the world shiver with awe
Together they dance through
the heavens towing along
their audience of rain
and at last his song
dies out and her footsteps falter
The storm is over.
Hmmm I'm wondering if describing it as a dance doesn't make sense because I said thunder sings? I got inspired when I was watching a thunderstorm a little bit ago.
Wow, you are very talented! I personally think thunder is frightening.
