The Fool and the Lightning
King & Clown
Author: Vladimir V. Korenyok


The thunder booms
And lightning's shining in the night
But on the hill
Some mad man's shouting with delight


He's running to the forest
To field, then to the stream
Catching lightning is his only dream

All people peered
To see this man acts like a fool
Runs up and down
From hill to field and then to pool


He's running to the forest
To field, then to the stream
Catching lightning is his only dream

Morning, he walked in the village
Cautiously stepping the road
All so grizzle and still bold
And he was smiling...

He's running to the forest
To field, then to the stream
Catching lightning is his only dream
