Lightning

Fri Dec 13, 2013 7:21 pm by queengoogoo

In the evening when the day is done
And no more is the light from the sun,
I look upon the stars Heaven high
And find gratefulness deep inside.
But then there are nights a storm rolls in,
And the twinkles disappear above the lightning.
The thunder accompanying the flash,
Lets me embrace the rain's splash.
These strikes pealing within the darkness
Makes me feel I have been blessed.

I wrote this recently and am very interested in your opinion. I can take the criticism, that's the only way I will learn and grow.

I look forward to hearing from anyone and everyone! Thank you!



UP THE MOUNTAIN TOP


Up the Mountain top


Past the Rhododendron


Past the Honeysuckle


Up where I helped my Father gather firewood


Up past the Blackberry patch where I gathered berries


With my Grandfather


Up this West Virginia hill I roamed as a child


Up to the top


Where I could see houses in the hollows below


Up where I could see a long abandoned coal camp


Up where as far as I could see were more


Forest green rolling hills


Up where I could see fog slumbering out of the dark
hollows



Up where I should see dark forest ahead


Much too soon for light


Up where I am suddenly surrounded by light


Before me lies a flat, stark and barren land.


Up where the Mountain top has died.
