'Thunder-Storm' Summary
The poem begins with a description of the storm's approach. The speaker describes how the "wind begun to rock the grass" and how the "thunder bolted by." The storm quickly intensifies, and the speaker describes how the "lightning flashed" and how the "rain poured down." The storm reaches its peak, and the speaker describes how the "earthquake staggered her." The storm eventually passes, and the speaker is left to reflect on its power and beauty.Book Details
