Thunderstruck

Words should pass between friends as the lightning passes from cloud to cloud. - Thoreau

"don't be afraid", mother said,

"It's just the angels bowling"

now i'm grown and mother's gone

i can't help but wonder if it's really god rock 'n rolling

Author's Note

"... we listened to some of the grandest thunder which I ever heard, -- rapid peals, round and plump, bang, bang, bang in succession, like artillery from some fortress in the sky; and the lightning was proportionally brilliant." - Thoreau
