    Poem Commentary

    It is truly amazing what thoughts go through a mind when watching a lighting show late at night. hope you all will stop and read. 

    Tis the lightening of the coming storm

        Tis not the setting 
    sun I am watching
    tonight.
        If it were it would be 
    magnificent.
    The sky full of radiant
    colors, mixing and blending
    to show an awesome sun set.
         Tis not the rising 
    moon I am watching.
     Changing from an orange 
    slice into a half smiling
    face high  up in the 
    night sky.
      Keeping watch over the stars
    and constellations all
    through the night. 
         Tis the lightening I am 
    watching tonight. 
    The coming of a storm, 
    streaks zipping jaggedly 
    across the night sky
    to dazzle even the weariest of
    human kind.
      Tis not the sun nor the moon 
    but it is the lightening of
    the coming storm.

    Beautiful imagery! I enjoyed watching it all through your eyes!

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
