LITERARY IMPULSE DAY 5 PROMPT-RECURRING DREAM
Storm Walkers
Free verse poetry
These recurring dreams
come with fear, excitement and wonder.
Lightning strikes the ground lingering
as if probing for information, is it looking for me?
I hide anyway in awe of its power.
Wanting to touch it as if it could be understanding,
knowing it is not;
it’s a dream to connect with absolute energy.
Desiring it to stay, wanting it to leave,
if it sees me it will strike, leaving nothing but cinders
or an absolute nothing, not even a soul.
