Like Ominous Foreign Flying Objects Poem by Gert Strydom

Like Ominous Foreign Flying Objects



Like ominous foreign flying objects
the black and grey clouds do come
with strange shapes
before they do become a solid mass
that cuts off the sun
and here and there do flash down with lightning-bolts
and they do bring a biting chill

and I see hail and later rain
falling untimely in this winter
and that which had not died from the black frost
has now been hit to tatters
before a strong wind does start blowing
and the mass of clouds do disappear
as if they were only my imagination.

A very chilling description of the storm, Gert. The atmosphere created is uncanny and suggests that something is not right. Extreme weather everywhere.
