Dancing Sky by A.J. Huffman
by Jonathon | 1.22.13The nightstorms are the worst.
More terrifying.
The sharp shocks of light.
They leave a scar.
Inside.
A memory.
An omen.
To remember often.
How much they look like cracks.

I kind of like storms myself. There’s something alive about them. But my kids don’t like the thunder.

I actually find storms at night relaxing. I love them. But my children always get scared. WE have a balcony and a big stretch of sky to watching lightning from, during summer and spring storms. Nothing more romantic ever existed…
