Quote
If I look closely, I can almost see myself floating in my mother's palm. Yet, when I shut my eyes, I find a different image of my mother releasing me as we dance in the storm and twirl in separate circles that cause the water to ripple from us in widening rings which merge in one ebbing bracelet of waves where the borders of the quarry meet the water, far from the center where my mother and I continue to spin our bodies in the radiant sheen of lightning.

Then everything turned brilliant white for a second, and Jacob's eyes were stunned. The shock faded, but then another flash came, dulled by the darkness of the fog. Blades of lightning broke through the sea of smoke, accompanied by the violent clap of thunder, as if an angry god saw the storm devour them, and burst out into wild applause.

Tropical Air Plants(epiphytic plants)Air plants include orchids, bromeliads, and all staghorn ferns. They are not planted in soil, and they do not need to be watered. They derive nutrition from decomposing insects and leaves, and nitrogen from lightning strikes. There's not much to add to the story of plants that live off lightning and death. That is drama enough for ten stories.
