Too Like the Lightning

by Travis Beaudoin

When the rain came, I’d sit on the back porch of my borrowed home and watch the world have a tantrum. It was the only time I didn’t feel alone.

Brilliant description for a storm

“So, anyway. I just like that phrase? Too like the lightning, that doth cease to be ere one can say, ‘It lightens!’ I think a lot of life is like that. Not literally as quick as a lightning flash, but things go by before we can appreciate them. It reminds us…it reminds me, anyhow…to be on the lookout. When the lightning strikes, notice it.”
