Fury

Thunder struck, she rose from the clouds
a towering figure, incensed and proud
The winds moved at her command
deadly lightning struck with an order of her hand
Fire cascaded from the tapestry of the sky,
the gale blew with a recurring sigh
Waves clapped fiercely against the shore,
turmoil and chaos, the planet wore
Mountains crumbled to the cracking ground,
cries of the creatures were mercilessly drowned
by the mayhem, the havoc, all the uproar,
by the lashing, battering rain that poured
from the reddened sky, a horrid red-
with fire and tumult, the earth had wed
Her fingers were clenched, her eyes gleamed,
she willed her forces to raze and scream
Until, that is, she closed her eyes,
shielding her gaze from the crimson skies
so she was exposed to the calming dark-
a conflagration that subsided to a mere spark
A cold breeze blew, seeming to calm the fire,
water prevented the flames from rising higher
Her fury calmed, she took a breath,
of her misunderstood anger, that was the death
The dark skies cleared, light took its place,
nature renewed its dance of grace
Screams vanished, smiles appeared,
the golden sun was shining and revered
