Storm

Author: Madison Julius Cawein [More Titles by Cawein]

I looked into the night and saw
GOD writing with tumultuous flame
Upon the thunder's front of awe,--
As on sonorous brass,--the Law,
Terrific, of HIS judgement name.

Weary of all life's best and worst,
With hands of hate, I--who had pled,
I, who had prayed for death at first
And had not died--now stood and cursed
GOD, yet he would not strike me dead.

[The end]
Madison Julius Cawein's poem: Storm
