Storm season

After a week of real horror due to the "horrific and violent acts of nature" witnessed this week.  NPR's "The Writer's Almanac" http://writersalmanac.publicradio.org/index.php?date=2011%2F04%2F29 gave a perfect poem: Mother by Ted Kooser.  Hit the link above to see or hear it.

These lines are awesome:

a storm that walked on legs of lightning,
dragging its shaggy belly over the fields.
