A VIOLENT STORM
One day at nightfall,
I was quickly overtaken
by a truly violent storm.
The rain poured down
into the howling darkness.
The thunder and lightning
appalled me in all its fury.
A bolt struck a tree nearby,
the tree crashed down into
the inky blackness of the night.
Alone I was, afraid, defenceless,
in the profound fury of the storm.
At that moment I gazed skyward,
and what I saw amazed me totally.
In the very heart of the night sky
shone a bright and twinkling star,
bringing a celestial message of hope
and peace to my troubled heart.
