Cane (Toomer)/Storm Ending
Storm Ending
Thunder blossoms gorgeously above our heads.
Great, hollow, bell-like flowers,
Rumbling in the wind,
Stretching clappers to strike our ears . .
Full-lipped flowers
Bitten by the sun
Bleeding rain
Dripping rain like golden honey—
And the sweet earth flying from the thunder.
