Counting Down to Thunder
May 25th, 2009
In this season of thunderstorms, I am finding my head more and more like a barometer, predicting the electric activity in the atmosphere. I hope you are enjoying your Memorial Day weekend – mine has had its ups and downs with the weather! I did want to share a poem of mine with you – it won an honorable mention in the Putting our Heads Together Migraine and Headache Poetry Contest this year.
Counting Down to Thunder
Counting down to thunder,
how many miles the storm lurks in the night?
Lightning pierces slumber,
grasp the shattered shards of sleep.
Where the welcome rain?
Where the soothing break in summer’s pain?
Storms without at last pile high upon the storms within –
thunder’s crash inside my skull tore life from many days.
Come tempest wash it clean again.
