I'm by no means Shakesphere or Henry Woodsworth Longfellow, but I love writing and I'm currently working on both a novel and a book of poems. Seeing this is an area to share, well, why not share something from my collection. Hope it will be an inspiration to someone. Here goes:

Distant Thunder

Rolling, murmuring, grumbling from above
Knots of pain entwined in fervent frowns
Heaps of bitterness swept o’er a sordid heart
Flashes of lightning illuminating a drunken soul
Floating on a mere whisper of sound
Rumbling, rolling getting closer, closer still
Fear gripped hearts chained in solitude
Destitute of the will to face the weather
Then it pours, it rains, it storms
Howling through with eerie sounds
Piercing bravery asunder
Fear grips and lives on
But it’s rolling, nearer draws the unnerving sound
Rumbling, murmuring from above
Getting closer, closer still
The sound of distant thunder.

I like it, well done.

Thanks OrangeCrate. I've got one on Friendship, will post it later on.
