Haiku of the storm

Uploaded: January 05, 2013

Description

~catch all~ A storm is brewing.
Lightning bolts flashing
Splashing rain hits my face
Loudly, thunder booms.


Lightning strikes the cliff
Thunder rolls through the village
Heavy rain begins.

While I escape to another place
taking my toy so I am safe
in a cosy place called Home.

There are NO images like YOUR images, Big Sis. You have done it again. Cindy certainly seems on a mission to save her toy! HeeHee...

I have never seen lightning zig zag like that. Was it real? It feels like we are seeing another planet here! :D WOW!
