-
The farthest Thunder that I heardB
Was nearer than the SkyC
And rumbles still though torrid NoonsD
Have lain their missiles byC
The Lightning that preceded itE
Struck no one but myselfF
But I would not exchange the BoltG
For all the rest of LifeH
Indebtedness to OxygenI
The Happy may repayJ
But not the obligationI
To ElectricityK
It founds the Homes and decks the DaysL
And every clamor brightM
Is but the gleam concomitantN
Of that waylaying LightM
The Thought is quiet as a FlakeO
A Crash without a SoundP
How Life's reverberationI
Its Explanation foundP
