Invisible Storm

Anger is an invisible storm

The quiet hills felt the breeze

That slew the birds and killed the trees

The people continued as they pleased

Ignorant as they danger increased

 

And over the horizon came the invisible storm

Of thunder clouds that took the form

Of sunny skies bright and warm

No one saw the invisible storm

 

Thunder didn't sound in the sky

Lightning didn't blink an eye

God watched as the storm passed by

And let all the guilty people die

 

Acid rain came pelting down

Drowning everyone in the town 

The wind shattered the golden crown

Until the rivers ran red and brown

 

The royals gone without complaint

With death of every sinner, every saint

The invisible storm grew more faint

And left the town desolate and quaint

[Dr. Wood ?]

another good one....you need to tighten up the meter of it . If you are going to rhyme..and you do it very well here....you need it to flow.....most of these lines could be adjusted without taking anything away..just takes a little thought

[Alexa Tasch]
