Carpe Diem Tanka Splendor #14 storm

Our prompt today from Chèvrefeuille is the word Storm and the invitation to write in one of the 5 Tanka styles illustrated so far this month through the study of Teika’s writing techniques.

So storm it is then and perhaps you can guess the style I have chosen?

silently i sit
no outer show of feeling
like a granite rock

forged in the volcanic fire
of my own dark ancient storm
