An Uncertain Season by Mitchel Montagna

An Uncertain Season


A storm was pushing from the East.

She tried to soothe my fear.

The normal rap of living ceased.

A thundercloud drew near.


Of all the angels I have known,

she grasped the deepest pain.

Her kindness kissed me to the bone;

her cool eyes kept me sane. 


We crept out in the aftermath.

The sky shone still and blue.

The sunlight cut a golden path;

lush fields were glowing too.


We heard some voices rise and pray,

as we came near a town.

Wind kicked up as we turned their way.

A fog was bearing down. 


Most preachers still call out the blues. 

They know what grief is worth. 

She gave a life I dared not lose

till fury swept the earth.
