Thunder 
in the 
distance. 
Lighting 
dancing, 
edging 
dark clouds. 
Soft rain 
thru the 
pines. 
Boughs dripping 
in the pond. 
Birds sounding 
bird talk. 
Many languages 
to be 
heard. 
Frogs 
in the pond 
announcing 
their attendance. 
Walking along 
the path, 
they take no 
notice of 
my 
intrusion. 
The 
planet is theirs. 
I’m 
just 
passing through.
