A Storm in The Valley
From an awakening of a
Glorious shine that arose from
The horizon of the eastern
Dawn, there was once
A croon and melody sound.
From Heaven in which it
Came, to the valley
Where it was pertained,
Though on one day,
Something came,
With a hellish roar.
From Hell it was made,
To the valley that gave
It no shame. When it arrived
And made its stay,
After the moon had made
Its fade, over the darkness
Of the endless day,
It lingered to the groundless
East and arrived with no ease.
For that sullen sound was a
Sound of clashing tides
From that of a roaring shore,
It was nothing more, than a
Ravishing Storm.
For days it stayed,
As the overwatch that
Prevented any ray to
Come through,
Like such of the holy ray.
For the Puritans,
Once holy creatures of He,
Gave no more treasury
To the One who
Was meant to sent
Them free; though
On one rainy day
Came a Man
That was made to stay.
A Man of mystic
Who came from the vast
Realm to love the puritans,
Who they saw, and ran away.
Though the Man was
No body of fear, like a
Roaring and
Soul eating bear,
He was only there
To make everything fair.
To many of them he was a great
And terrifying fate, to others
He was a true revival and a saint;
And throughout these gloomy days,
The Storm roared of crucial pain
And weeping drops of fire,
Like the sounds of their unforgiving prays.
For The Storm still made its stay,
Underneath the holy ray, while
Many of the souls in the valley
Were now under way.
And though the Man
Was dealt to stray,
From the unholy Puritans who
They tried to dismay by their lost of faith
And lust for selves,
The Man of He was not there
To shame them, but he was only
There to set them free.
The Storm still roared, like a terrifying boar
Above the souls for its Master that
Commenced the evil choir.
For darkness the Storm gave,
Like the perpetual Darkness of night
In which it came, it roared and
Roared at the tainted souls within
The doomed valley.
But though the Man was brave
And could sense the cry and unholy
Rain of the roaring Storm, the Man
Felt no sore like the ones before;
And so, the Storm roar once more
As the valley was now to relinquish
And release its new, and forever, peace.
For the Storm was no more,
And the Sun was no more to shun.
The Puritans were now in their forevermore,
For they had fathomed once more,
About the Man, who was nothing more,
Than a Rider on the Storm.

This piece of poetry of mine is my first to be ever written, with full dedication, as well as my first to be published online. My inspirations were/are my muse and my choice of music. For this certain piece of literature, I was generally inspired by the song Riders On The Storm by The Doors. At first, about last December, a few weeks before Christmas Break, I had the idea of writing this piece as a short story, but unfortunately during the time of when I determined to write it, I fell under the position of procrastination-bummer, I know. But about a month later, I still had the idea lodged within my muse, and I knew I must write this idea on paper, some how or some way; so instead of writing the idea as a short story, I decided to write it as a poem. As of now this piece of literature is in poetry format but I will, in the future, write the story as a whole. I consider this poem to be a great summary of the story, of the same title/name, A Storm in The Valley. I hope that this poem, as well as my other peoms, will enchant and intrigue any readers who are looking for something to awe their mind and muse, something new I would say; and if this poem does so, as I attained to, I will give out more poems. All and all, I hope that anyone, hopefully everyone, can endure the mystery and amazement of what I call "The Doors of Literature", especially one of the first pieces of this certain literature- A Storm in The Valley.
