Early Morning Splendor

Thunder rumbles deep and low

As storm clouds loom in western skies.

Sol has yet to show his face

And I shrink down to half my size.

 

Creeping, crawling, reeling, rolling

Ponderous peaks of garish gray

Stumble til they reach my doorstep,

Almost takes my breath away.

 

Lightning flashes ever closer

As the deluge comes at last, and 

I, as witness, gaze in awe

Until the spectacle has passed.

 

Who creates such splendid splendor?

What great wisdom might inspire?

Such a rush of rapid rapture

Had to come from somewhere higher.
