Lake storm!

 Lake Storm
 
Relaxing on yon clubhouse-porch in respite
Any imagined-problem, decide I: Just forget it
 
Solitude under shading-comfort of old huge red-oak
Subtle-wind change have my sharpened senses woke
 
Thunderheads tower-tall on far-horizon yonder
Lightning-shards portend fear awesome-wonder
 
Rolling rumbles rattling roughly on a trained-ear
Still, too many myriad miles away to clearly hear
 
Acute aware now of impending stealthily evil-danger
Clandestine-tempest in disguise, obfuscated-stranger
 
Sweet smell of freshness harbored on tossed-air
Purple-green robe does front-approaching wear
 
A cooling-breeze precedes the torrent-threatened
White flashes streak as echoing-crashes deafened
 
Upon the quaking black-chop surface of the lake
Wind-swept crests of wild white-caps dance wake
 
In safe-harbor on headland beyond violent-fray
Appreciate show of fearsome powerful-display
 
Tranquil-times return when turbulence has passed
Such slight disruption of good-day simply can’t last
 
Good-versus-evil battles in lifetime are daily-fought
Victory-proclaimed! The altercation fleeting-thought
 
Value refuge in pure-light of saintly virtue glow
Saved-soul in Father, Son and Holy Spirit flow
 
Amen!
