Prelude to a deluge –
Summer spectacle
Stirs from on high,
Resplendent in its joy
As it erases the dark.

And it’s not just a lightning show Stacy, I love the sounds of all of those nightime creature too! Thank you for sharing your part of the world. 🙂
The sounds are comforting, Joanne. When it really heats up in the summer (90 degrees isn’t really “hot”), then the cicadas will start their symphony. ❤
Stunning! I remember storms like that from summers in the Midwest. And I loved the frog chorus too! Thanks for sharing that with us.
It was weird to see the lightning with no thunder or rain whatsoever! ❤
Dear Stacy, Beautiful post . . . Ellen
Very kind of you to say so, Ellen. thank you for visiting. ❤
I love thunder and lightning on a warm summer night! We don’t get it often here, so it is always a treat. Lovely night time symphony you have there! So nice to listen to – reminds me of my childhood home on the little pond in Massachusetts. The bullfrogs and peepers created a chorus to fall asleep to. xoxo
They remind me of childhood visits to MawMaw’s house in Mississippi. I can be a child forever when I listen to them. ❤
Dearest Stacy,
Nature speaks the very same language here in Georgia, with frog vocabulary being the leader!
We’ve had quite some summer lightning this past week. Things are so lush and green and frog-happy…
Hugs,
Mariette
Yes, indeed – the frogs are very happy presently. It’s like a symphony out there every night. ❤
Thanks, Stacy! How impressive that is . . . I once flew into Norfolk, VA in a huge thunderstorm; I couldn’t even hold a drink without it spilling. It was so exciting . . . just like a roller-coaster ride . . .
I, too, liked hearing the sounds of your place.
Oh that plane ride does not sound fun – the kind that would turn my knuckles white from clutching the arm rest. ❤
Very cool, Stacy! So happy to enjoy the lightening show–and to hear the noise of the critters chirping and calling in your neck of the woods. Lovely poem, too.
Love those frogs! ❤
They sounded stranger and more exotic than northern frogs! I thought maybe they were Swamp Creatures!
Well- that could be, Kathy. I didn’t actually see them! ❤
That’s stunning!
Flying back from Atlanta once, I caught that show from above the clouds.
Just as incredible.
Oh yes – I saw it from the vantage point of the sky once, too, and it was no less impressive. ❤
