Storm of Songs

Not to be confused with the Song of Storms http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PLEtFvjILJY&feature=related
This was inspired by my concert last night, when a vicious rain storm could be heard slamming against the room of Foy Hall as I and the rest of the choir sang; a very cool feeling, like nature was singing along with us.

Storm of Songs

Our voices
form a great cloud
in the air above our audience,
sending notes spiraling down
from the ceiling,
drenching the listeners with emotion,
from a light drizzle of happiness
to a raging tempest of fury.
And as the different voice parts
would clash,
great crashes of thunder
would send a shudder
through all
as they were struck by
the power and energy,
electrifying those
who dared embrace it.
And, as our tale came to a close,
the audience reciprocated,
a sudden flash of lightening
blinding us all
as they stood,
small claps of thunder
adjoining with one another,
become a magnificent sound
of its own.

As I listened that night
to nature join us in our tale,
I couldn't help but smile
and raise my voice to heaven,
where God and I
sat and chatted for a while
amid the rushing winds
and cross clouds.
