‘To the Ending of the Storm’

'To the Ending of the Storm'

When finally ceased

The howling of the winds

We heard birdsong.

Still waters

And clear blue skies.

Like a simile of a metaphor .

Peace in our time.

Declare not war,

Summoning storm clouds

But twitter and tweet in clear blue skies.

Be calm

And listen

To the ending of the storm.

And sing together .
