Quiet as a Thunderstorm / Poems / By Ray Higley There is no point in looking backThe rush of wind… will soon attack And press your spirit to the ground Steel your heart and keep you bound. In among your favorite friends You are caught… they’re looking inTalking through a plated glassThey hope to touch your casual class. You aren’t for sale, but that’s a shame Your quiet reason helps to flameThe pending deluge… skies that warnOf your quiet perfect thunderstorm
