The flash goes bright
blinding the eyes
that of not artificial
but one of natural
coming in the 
form of lightning
while the myth goes
lightning powerful
would rob the eyesight
as my mother closed my eyes
during my younger days
a measure to save my eyes
that still lingers in my memory
forcing me to close the eyelids
as soon as I see a lightning
a habit that dies hard.
Is there any reason to believe so/
I know not what to say so
as the scientists have to answer
this frivolous question of mine
sounding very trivial and silly
but has a meaning great and valid.
