Thunderstorm 9 October 2025

a poem about a very loud storm

It was the kind of thunder

That startles away your cares

And could only have been better

If you had also been there

As it was the kind of thunder

That is always best when shared

I love a good thunderstorm! Interesting reading this, as I had just been feeling nostalgic and writing about experiencing thunderstorms while in a tiny tent. I had to think about it but I agree thunder is best shared.
