taken by storm

Linking to dVerse where Bjorn hosts onomatopoeia poetry prompt…


clouds gather darkly
thunder rrrumbles
wind whooshes wild
through trembling trees;
leaves twitter with ppips
of raindrops…plopps on
gravel road…drumms atop
car roof; aloof to river rapids
churling, swirling swiftly along,
rushing, gushing underneath
old bridge as it creaks rustily.

Klondike bridge

    ” river rapids
    churling, swirling swiftly along”

    I love a good storm when it isn’t destructive, of course

    I would be scared of standing on that creaking bridge. Good sounds on the coming storm.

    I so relate to this especially; “drumms atop car roof; aloof to river rapids churling, swirling swiftly along.” 💜💜

    The sound of a storm can be so intense, the creaking bridge seems ominous.

    Wow! I could see this through the sounds. If that makes sense…
