My response to Jane Dougherty’s Poetry challenge #25: Cinquain
Lightning
Flickers, buzzes
Like a fly zig-zagging
Across the sky – thunder rumbles
Softly.

I love your use of ‘softly’. It brings the storm to such a gentle and unexpected climax.

So well captured in words. The soft rumble/growl at the end got me 🙂
