Stealing My Thunder

Rating: 5.0


The scoundrels were intent
on stealing my thunder,
and if they got my lightning,
that would indeed be fright'ning.

When they came sneaking past,
I gave them a small blast
that scattered them asunder
and caused them all to wonder.

In what unholy hour
had I gained so much power
to move extremely fast
and plow the rascals under?

Hilarious! As Cowboy suspects, I think you are affected by the ghost of Zeus (if He has one) or the Indian God of Thunders Indra. And Congratulations, MadterPoet! This poem is already among the Best Poems of Members. Great
