Fear of thunderstorms (An Acrostic Form)


C
rawl beneath the covers
O
utside, the thunder roars
V
iolently shaking the Earth's core.
E
nding is no where in sight
R
ain pounces your windowpane.

M
onstrous sounds assault your ears
E
very cell in your body quakes.

U
nder the blanket you quickly hide
P
eeking in hope of a reprieve.

W
eather in its tumultuous glory
I
nching ever closer still,
T
ime has no beginning or end
H
ell is what you're going through.

T
he heavens open wide
H
ail plummets from the sky
E
arth is rocked on its axes.

T
ears flow from closed eyes
E
ars covered with trembling hands
A
ll your fear is being realized
R
ocking back and forth, hugging knees.
S
anity has long since fled.

O
ff in the distance the thunder rumbles
F
inally over. You shake off the terror.

T
ime to return to practical thinking
H
eaven is shining once again, the
E
arth is still standing strong.

S
ky is now a beautiful blue
K
inder too is the wind.
Y
ou're safe once again.
