Awesome is storm.
^^^^^^^^^   ^^^^^^^^
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Thick and heavy this afternoon air
projects an
impending doom everywhere.
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^6
Frightening is lightning.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Leaving a film on withering green
it alters
opalesque dew pooled in each leaf.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Numbing is thunder.
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Wide but blueless the skyscape here
windlessly waits
as large pregnant clouds reappear.

Then... a
Fear awakes.
World is a-shake.
Mournful is birdcall.
Sudden thunder, decibel-loud
Rumbles, drowns
Voices of scurrying crowd.

Now I see
A large tree shaking prior to
The strike,
Speed-forked
999999999999999
99999966666669999999
Ice-hea­t
Lightning
Slashes at
Old spalted
Oak-core.
Strips its
Thick bark,
Groaning
Tree heaves,
Blasted side
Sighs and it
Splits as it
Rips, flying
Leaves slide
Into a heated
Inferno to live
No more, I hear
It in falling to die
Let out a desperate cry.
Awesome is white forked lightning.
