Thunderstorm for a tree

Through my many ears I hear a sound,
The clouds seem happy - what is that they found?
At first they lit the earthen stage with lights -
Bright enough, but just lasting for a blink of an eye! 
Oh, how I wish I could just dance around!
Swinging my trunk in ways none have found.
But my roots have gotten way too deep,
A gentle sway is all I can keep!
