Life Goes On

The timpani sound of rain hitting the tin roof was like a narcotic to the old man. Seated on his covered porch in his favorite slat rocker, he could barely keep his eyes open.
A flash and an accompanying loud boom caused him to snap up-right. Lightning hit a tree forty feet from his house. It blasted bark all the way to his porch.
Settling back and rocking gently, his eyelids once again became heavy.
