Startled awake by a boom,
Wondering what's happened,
And whether I should get up.
I lay there waiting,
And here is comes again.
It starts out low and intensifies,
Until it's booming over my head,
And I can feel it in my nerves.
I lay there and listen,
While it runs its course,
Seeing the light flash,
Behind my closed eyes.
It calms and I drift back to sleep.
