A shadow of immense power
had let darkness take over
and I was unable to see
a bit of light in the sky above me
Even the pool of water
below me was stagnant
and for a little while,
the wilderness was silent
The city's never ending gobble
had slowed
and the streets were empty
except for the travelers
hoping to beat the rush
that would never come
I wore your raincoat
but shed it
when I heard the thunder
ripple through the sky
through my body
Reverberating off the tips
off the trees I climbed as a child
I smile at you, my world
and danced in the gift
you had left for me
