The seas will rise and roar with anger
the winds will howl and shriek their pain
and mankind will huddle into safety and shelter
as the storm’s rage unleashes itself

The earth will shudder and tremble before it
the skies splitting open with a howl
and animals will huddle into dens and nests
hiding away from the storm’s rage

The soil welcomes the deluge and the violence
over its surface, opening itself to take in more
and the harvest sings gratitude
once the storm’s rage has calmed – Caroline A. Slee
