Mother Nature Entertains

The porch swing creaked, the white haired man and the bright, blue eyed boy sat together rocking back and forth, watching the sky to the north. “Papa, what was that!?” Colby asked, emphasizing each word.

“It was thunder, if you look at the sky over there you’ll see lightning,” Papa explained. Just then a flash zigzagged across the sky. Colby’s eyes grew wider and his breath sucked in and held. He turned his head slowly to see Papa’s reaction. Papa was counting one thousand one, one-thousand two, and one-thousand three, as a loud clap of thunder busted through the quiet. Colby jumped, his brows puckered and tears welled in his eyes. Papa smiled, reaching over and gently wrapping his arm around Colby’s shoulders. He pulled him close and rocked the swing a little bit harder.

Colby settled in comfortably never taking his eyes off the sky. A flash of light lit up the dark brooding heavens again, “Get ready for it,” Papa warned. Colby stiffened, hid his face in Papa’s side, and covered his ears. The bang rolled in getting louder as it tumbled through the air. Colby relaxed when it was over and gazed up at Papa with a half-smile.

“Is that all?” he asked softly.

“No we’re just getting started. Think of it as Mother Nature bringing us our own movie,” Papa grinned and squeezed little Colby. He smiled, sitting up straighter. “Oh, here comes the rain,” Papa said when the skies opened up and dumped buckets full of water on the roof of the house. Soon it was falling from the eaves in solid sheets. The lightning flashed and the thunder rolled. Colby and Papa clapped and laughed for the rest of the evening until the storm had past.
