Answer 1

Light

  

Day and night

Is decided upon by light

Daylight is wondrous and bright

Darkness solely brings upon fright

Black and white

Is entirely lucid in light

The beauty of sight

Is valued broadest in light

Any form of fight

Must be done in light

Otherwise winning will be tight

In the absence of light

Hovering around will be our plight

We can't separate wrong from right

If we cannot see without the light

So light from the sun is fun

Essential for a battle to be won

As a fire ignites

Particles of dust reunite

The fiery orange light

Fends of the termites that bite

The candle or moonlight

Is always a special invite

Inspiring me to write

Spinning my imagination to great heights!

Light is good

Light is food

Light acts upon our moods

Light is a weapon

Light is a bundle of fun

Light of a lamp, of a candle or sun

I call for you to keep shining on!

Answer 3

Lightning is a sudden discharge of electricity between charged regions of thunderclouds and the ground. Only about 25 percent of lightning strikes are cloud-to-ground. The rest are either cloud-to-cloud or intracloud

Lightning USUALLY strikes the tallest object. It makes sense that the tallest object is most attractive, because it is the easiest path for the lightning to take.

Cloud-to-ground lightning can kill or injure people by direct or indirect means. The lightning current can branch off to a person from a tree, fence, pole, or other tall object.

There are three main ways lightning enters homes and buildings: (1) a direct strike, (2) through wires or pipes that extend outside the structure, and (3) through the ground. Regardless of the method of entrance, once in a structure, the lightning can travel through the electrical, phone, plumbing, and radio/television reception systems. Lightning can also travel through any metal wires or bars in concrete walls or flooring.

Answer 4

Are you by chance from near saskatoon? We have just been pelted with rain and thunder and lighting pretty good.
