Imagist Poem: A Beautiful Storm

A Beautiful Storm
by Diyana Gonzalez

The skies darken as clouds roll in,
Blocking out the light
And making the world pitch-black.
The beginning of nature's wrath.

Thunder rumbles,
Starting suddenly but lingering.
A rumbling that shakes the earth,
Like a deep, reverberating bass drum beat.

The rain starts out as a light pitter-patter
But quickly grows
To a heavy, steady rhythm.
Its rhythm so soothing and relaxing.

Just for an instant,
Lightning splits the sky
And blinds you with a unexpected white streak.
The remainder of its lights dancing along the stormy sky.

All these elements come together,
Like one orchestra of harmony,
Filled with rhythms and emotions,
To create a beautiful storm.
