Lightning and Thunder
The crashing sounds and bright lights
While rain is pouring to the ground
This day is filled with thunderstorms
So, I stick around
Lightning and thunder shall begin their rounds
In a sky that is either night or day
You shine with brilliant white light
Your partner, loud and strong
While you crash to the earth
Strength in one bolt
No hesitation
No weakness
No fault
Sound that maves and shake with power
You don't wait for us to hide
You don't stall in your mind
You do not have to be during the rain
It does not matter to you
For you are untamed
People fear you, your deadly light
They fear your companion, its sounds that bring fright
Shaking the earth with its might
They want you gone, wishing you away
But you do as you please
They must learn to endure
Though I fear you not
Nor your partner
I do not fear the nature mother
I fear not the rain
Nor what is unable to be changed
I fear what can be caged
