I, Of The Storm

I, Of the Storm

A black storm whirled
 through my shut window
swallowing me whole and
silencing my words.
It carried me everywhere
within its tempest stomach.

Something within
awakened to free me
as I followed the sunrise
looking through all panes
illumined by the bittersweet
light of morning
greeted by the festive
harmonies of dawn;
welcomed into the cool wet sunrise day.

(I wrote this circa 1974 after having recurrent dreams about storms.)
