Description

Thunder and  Silence 

Still and silent,

the hardness 

of steel, 

black and grey,

presses and squeezes 

the morning light 

from a reluctant dawn 

and leaden sky, 

whilst below 

in swathes 

of new and vital green, 

the earth exhales
 
and holds itself, 

ready for the fall 

and hammer 

of early morning 

thunder rain, 

and though the birds 

sing loudly, 

in umbrella songs 

of colour 

and invisible kites 

of hope,

in the celebration 

of thousands 

of applauding trees, 

the hush and whisper 

of opening leaves, 

heeds the farewell 

of night.
