finger beams

I love it when
a deep dark dangerous
thunderstorm
is raging,
lightning threatening
to zap the big tree
in the front yard-
candles flickering
inside because the power's
out and it looks like
midnight instead of 3,
thunder claps loudly,
closer than before-
and right when you're about
to stop enjoying the show
and be scared for a moment,
the clouds break
in one little place
and finger light beams
shine across the sky-
and suddenly,
the storm is laughable
