#TANKATUESDAY Weekly #POETRY CHALLENGE NO. 266, 3/22/22, #THEMEPROMPT
This month’s theme is:
FIRE & WATER
The clock struck midnight twice storm winds blew hard the old house rattled thunder had us hiding lightning lit the tree flame red hours later, rain took the flames back slowly creeping from under the table silence returned, filling the house with peace… ©AnitaDawes2022
