Learning From a Storm

The sea rolls under a cloudy, dark sky

The wind fiercely pushes its way by

But instead of running, I think I might try

To enjoy it, so in the sand I lie.

The waves get rough, the sky grumbles deep

The lightning strikes me awake, when I drift off to sleep.

I know there is danger, but instead I keep

To watching the beauty that all emotions can reap.

The red sky swirls over the dark sea of blue

I hold to my heart that I will get through

Even now I know that above all things true

You never know what beauty there can be inside you.
