SUDDEN STORM

I was sitting
By the pond
Feeding ducks
And dozing
When I felt
A presence,
And looking up

Saw a dark cloud
Hovering over me,
And it instantly
Spat lightning
And the ducks
Scattered into
The sheets of rain

That followed. I sat
There bewildered, wanting
To make sense of each new
Revelation deciding at last
That I could handle this
Quite well striding off
With great powerful steps.
