An Island in the Storm
She stands tall majestic
Spire and steeple crown
Dreams stretched up and outward
From her enveloping arms
Wooley clouds caress her brow
She sleeps
Dozing in the comfort of knowing
She is always beyond our reach
Lightning flashes jagged bolts
Thunder crashes tearing at her sides
Through the maelstrom stands the lady
Thrusting tall beyond the tides
Generating a special interest
An influence well beyond the norm
Thunder Butte Mountain stands forever
Secure haven from the storm
