The Whitehurst Diaries: Storms along Big Creek Click on headline for complete diary entry with photo(s) By Sharon Whitehurst The thunderstorm which rattled through an hour before daylight has trailed a legacy of rapidly shifting clouds. Winter-browned leaves from the magnolia tree dance across the lawn. Seed wings from the dooryard maples cling wetly to the windshield of the car. The spicy-sweet scent of fading viburnum blossoms is heavy in the damp air. The cats huddle on the back steps or venture into the tall grass beyond the clothesline - wary or bold according to their individual natures. At the slightest ker-fluffle of wind or distant growl of thunder they dash inside, skittering down the hall, flinging themselves onto the bed--the better to dry mist-dampened fur and soggy feet. Grey skies brood over green darkness below; the air which stirs the heavy linen curtains at the sliding door has developed more than a hint of chill. The voice of the wind rises from a whisper to a fretful whine, subsides, rises again with a hint of powers held in check. The stage seems set, awaiting the production of a gothic drama. - Sharon Whitehurst This story was posted on 2014-04-25 11:52:28
