until the night.

When a bolt of lightning hit

and people were in fright.

People checked the news,

nothing was said.

The picture of lighting

floats through their heads.

The howling of the wind,

the rain beating on my head,

I was running for shelter

for fear I’d be dead

The rain turned to hail

painful against my skin

From the loud crack of thunder,

I awoke from the nightmare I had been in.
