STORM SHAKES THE DARLING BUDS TODAY


 The sky, as dark as deepest night,
cracks open with a lightning strike.
Somewhere, some one is surprised,
veil torn. so sudden, from their eyes,
All birds are still. Each thing retracts.
Thunder's announcing crucial facts:

"Mortals, this is mighty music. Worship
now, between the sight and sound of it.

In that silence lies magnificent mystery--
the absolute connection of thee and me."
