Skies darken, winds howl
Acorns fall before raindrops
Squirrels take cover
Deep blue framed window
Mute witness across the lake
Watch the storm with me
Thunder fills the gap
After expectant silence
Lightning left behind
I sat on the screened in porch yesterday afternoon as a storm moved in over the lake. The blue window in the middle picture took on the appearance of a face when I looked at it closely. Then, the bottom photo has a somewhat sinister appearance. See if you can find what I’m talking about. It freaked me out a bit.
Oh, and as I finished typing that last bit we had a very close lightning strike followed by an instant house-rattling clap of thunder. Scout (our cat) and I made a hasty retreat into the house. Whew!
Peace, people!
Praying for Eyebrowz 
I can conjure the blue window face, but in seeing anything baleful in that bottom photo, I’m as lost as a Floridian bohemian looking for a spot to slam some poetry. Beats me.

Shehanne spotted it. There’s a malevolent face in the left hand corner.

Nice work Leslie. Your bottom pic is generally quite atmospheric but I don’t know if you are meaning what is on the left hand side in the lower half x
