Thunderstorms are captivating and at the same time frightening. Your three line entry for the contest is well illustrated and worded. Good luck to you. Marilyn

DD!
Such a pulsing phrase is your first line. Of course, the thunder's applause is appropriate to the overall theme for this post and its accompanying artwork.
Best wishes for your entry.

Comment from Janice Canerdy
You have made excellent use of all of your syllables in this vividly descriptive poem. It resonated with me because I find lightning mesmerizing; then--after I'm wowed by it--I hope no person or home got hit!

I hear you Janice. It is so mesmerising, hard to concentrate properly when driving too. Don't want to miss out on all the display. And, like you I then worry about damage. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Have a nice weekend. ~DD

Brilliantly done, DD! Loved your "thunder claps" which has two meanings and the "electric fingers" are putting on stunning performance. Thanks for the recap of the natural disasters there and hope you and yours stay safe!

Hello PoemsOfDD
How are you with this?
I read what you said about
the present virus that you had thunderstorms in Australia.
Now to comment on your 3 lines, of streaks of lighting looking like fingers and then the thunder claps ---
is really good.

I think this is a good entry for the 3 Line Poetry contest.
This short piece tells of thunder applauding the lightning show.
Well done and I wish you good luck with the contest.

Hello DD,
What a marvelous 5-7-5 poem for the contest
with clever word play and wonderful imagery.
It's like watching the creator conduct nature.
One small suggestion to move the tilde to line two
to act as a cutting symbol for the satori line.:
electric fingers
play wildly to enthrall crowd~
thunder claps loudly
Very well done.
This could be a winner.
Best wishes to you.
Stay safe.
Robert
