Wild Fury

Animal silence followed by sable clouds

The winds gathering their speed and strength

Before a drop is seen, I smell the rain

The air carries a spark of future strain

In the distance, the thunder's boom resounds

I seek shelter from the storm's fury

Moments later, I run amidst the fury

God's face is shielded from me by the clouds

Being punched by the gales (their shrieks resound),

I feel the storm taking away my strength

My heart thunders and every muscle strains

A lightning bolt illuminates the rain.

All my surroundings being crushed by rain

I try to see through the savage fury

This mighty downpour gives my eyes strain

Through the vehement shadows of the clouds

I see friends, gathered in numbered strength

And her for whom my poetry resounds

As the storm's vim continues to resound

So do I continue through the cold rain

Now determined to use each drop of strength

That I aim to unleash my own fury

Against the wrath of unforgiving clouds

For the sake of love does my soul e'er strain

With each of my muscle now taut and strained

The pulsating of blood in my veins resounds

After I've declared war against the clouds

With strikes of lightning and thrashing of rain

Coming down on me in all hell's fury

I shout an orison to God for strength

Her smile sparks a new wave of strength

My heart begins to sing a joyous strain

As I escape from the storm's wild fury

With the laughter of my friends resounding

They rejoice that I got out of the rain

God's almighty love leaves behind the clouds

I have conquered the fury of the clouds

The rain has not plundered me of my strength

And I shall let another strain resound
