I Don't Like Storms

I really don't!

I Don't Like Storms!

 

I don't like the thunder

It makes me want to

hide down under the covers

 

I don't like the lightning

It's so bold and so bright

it keeps me awake and

gives me a fright

 

I don't like the rain

in such big drops, it falls

so hard it beats my garden

to a pulp

 

I don't like the wind

howling through the

trees it rattles my

nerves and shakes

my knees

 

I will admit nature seems

so clean and smells so

fresh.........

But I still don't like storms

just what comes after

Author's Note

It's been storming here for days off and on, and I truly don't like them, but since they are plauging (sp) me I figure I'd try to make them fun! LOL Please excuse grammer etc wasn't even on my mind.

I don't like storms either but I liked your poem. May I recommend pulling the curtains tightly closed and locking the door. I have a theory that if it can't get it in, it will go away. So, I never open the door and I am always safe. I apply this same theory during hurricane season. I pull the curtains and so far, the storms have taken neighbors' houses, etc, while the most it has done has been to take my trashcan lid. It may not be scientific but it works for me!

in such ig drops, - what's an "ig"? Cute rhyme scheme. You should get you a dog that barks at the thunder. Then you could really hate storms. :)

Although I enjoy very much nature's displays of energy in thunder, lightning, wind and rain, I don't doubt that if they continue for several days that they become a bother. (plaguing)?
This one made me smile.
