What are active voice verbs?

Well, active voice is when the subject of the sentence is directly stated to be doing the action. Like, "the lightning struck the tree" is active voice because the lightning is the subject and is at the beginning of the sentence and followed directly by the verb struck. Passive voice (the opposite) of this sentence would be "the tree was struck by lightning" lightning is still the subject and still doing the verb, struck, but it is not at the beginning of the sentence and directly followed by the verb. So maybe the active voice verb is the verb that the active subject is performing?
