Squall – A sudden onset of strong winds with speeds increasing to at least 18 miles per hour and sustained at 25 miles or more per hour or at least one minute. – The Weather Channel
Sudden! It’s all so sudden!
I weather the storm
The tempest of the raging seas
As sudden as lightning
Unpredictable with Poseidon’s wrath
I ride the howling winds
Plastered by a rain of emotions
Cocooned within the armor of discipline
Not a typical summer rain
Nor the deluge of the wet season
Not the intermittent sprinkle during cold weather
Nor the onset of a monsoon
I breeze through the squall
The hurricane of righteous anger
As swift as a windstorm
Violent with Zeus’ vengeance
I stand still within the cyclone
Beaten by a blizzard of thoughts
Protected by the shield of honor
Then it stops…
