Calm After the Storm [Poetry: Anytime, Anyplace…]

Poetry: Anytime, Anyplace, About Anything – Calm After the Storm

By, Donna M. Monnig

Calm After the Storm

 

Lightening pierced the

       midnight sky,

Displeased, Thunder wailed

       a booming cry.

 

The Wind, it raged with

       invisible force,

As the Cowboy waited it out;

       calming his Horse.

 

The Cowboy feared not the

       Lightening and rain,

Even as his Horse tugged

       hard on the reins.

 

The Cowboy simply spoke

       gruff, soothing words,

‘Til night turned to day with

       sunshine and birds.

This poem just kind of jumped into my head, so I decided to post it for today rather than do the NaPoWriMo prompt.
