Storm
Form: Abstract Poetry
Theme: Winter
Subject: A tree
Winds scowling and howling whisking and frisking through the trees cracking and stacking twigs on the path as a thunderous snap raps through the air and a tree crashes to the ground no longer to dance in this cacophony of sound and after the storm it lies still in the silence
