Ready for a blinding strike

2) I also saw a funnel cloud once and it was scary! This poem is a beautiful and correct interpretation of what the poet has seen high in the clouds, psychologically, we always want to feel safe, so our enemies are ended like that, as the great poetess tells us. Thank you so much for this very interesting poem. Enormously fearing though.

1) oftentimes in the clouds we see figures, a figure or a collection of many clouds, so that we store something in our imagination, the longer we think about it in thought, we often " see" something to our imagination and " finish" that picture we have seen, such as a dark funnel cloud, ready as a fighter jet for a blinding attack to eliminate enemies!

Expecting rains in heat strokes, the funnel cloud with a promise the same, we all expect rains in such a hot summer. On the other hand lacking thoughts to write a poem, a poet expects some miraculous inspiration. A beautiful poem so nice penned by the poetess.
