"Portentous"

“Portentous”

11/14/16

Heavy rolling in the clouds

sensing of the rain to follow

gathering as a hen her chicks

time for telling stories calm

awaiting the giant shadow

coming across the dark seas

lightning lighting the way

hearing the massive thunder

portentous the night thought

while serving cookies and milk

all gathered together in safety

families as one now-forever

calming the fright far away

sensing the rain and winds

within the heavy rolling clouds!
