Gedicht der Woche [KW 22]:

Distant Thunder

First you see the dark clouds looming,
Black drapes engulfing all the light.
All the blue they are consuming
Immersing bright day into night.
And then you hear a distant thunder, 
You feel a light breeze from afar -
And then the world is going under...
The elements: They are at war. 
There’s lightning rolling, lashing, dashing,
The rain is whipped down by the gale,
That roaring, rumbling thunder’s frightening!
You hope the earth will still prevail.
For it is now you understand
What small a creature is a man.
