Angry waves crash against
a jumbled, rocky shore;
a raging wind howls;
torrential rain falls
from a heavily laden sky.
I standing alone in the storm
amongst moss-covered trees;
my heart pounds:
I seem to hear echoes of drums
uncovering wounds
caused by ancient fears.
A bolt of lightning
streaks across the darkened sky
randomly striking a tall silhouette:
Thunder Spirit rumbles
then gently speaks his wisdom:
"Remember your greatest fear:
name it! Face it!
Fear nothing; embrace all,
even your darkest moments;
your darkest thoughts
and Great Spirit's love will manifest
in clear understanding,
though seldom in ways
you've learned to expect!?
