Full Force Nature

What I enjoy doing

Time to walk, out into nature.

The heat is stifling and the humidity makes it difficult breath.

But I walk for a reason.

It is late, I should be asleep.

I smell the ozone in the air and I know what is coming.

It is the reason for my midnight stroll.

In the distance, it lights the skies.

The first clue to what is coming.

Soon the deep rumbling makes itself heard.

Closer now and I am ready.

The rain comes, it is here.

The night is filled with light and noise, all around me.

A bolt of lightning so close it is immediately followed by an earsplitting crack of thunder.

I am startled, but I am not afraid.

Time to sit and enjoy nature at it’s finest.

The rain soaks my body.

This is refreshing, my baptism by nature.

As the storm retreats I am saddened that I cannot spend more time within it.

I am relived to know that there will be another and I will be there.

The reason I came, to spend time alone with full force nature.
