A Sudden Storm Poem by asma bahrainwala
A Sudden Storm
The blinding light
Of the brightest ever sun
Suddenly shrouded
By a thick pall of impenetrable darkness.
A strange silence engulfs.
A sudden chill creeps in;
The wind begins to blow
Gently-wildly-ferociously,
Forming a dense screen of dust.
The wind gains momentum.
It sucks the dry leaves
Up towards the sky,
A greedy funnel forms;
The trees sashay to the rhythm.
The wind begins to howl.
A roaring thunder roars,
Alarms the mighty earth,
Rips it off its grave silence,
And shoves it into utter chaos.
A frightening darkness befalls.
Now, I can hear the sky
Shrieking with pain;
Thunder-bolt and lightening,
Now it breaks into rain.
A heavenly downpour.
The anger subsides;
Tears begin to flow;
Nature reconciles.
A cool breeze gently blows.
A curious sun peeps,
Spreading a bright smile;
Darkness evaporates.
The landscape dazzles again.
