Howling winds, blowing trees
scary images i've only seen in my dreams
Slow drops of warm rain dance on around
on the ground in rhythm.
Lightening strikes the ground
with something fierce, with no feeling.
The rhythm of the drops speeds faster
and faster as the winds grow stronger.
Watching it hit my window like violent
waves crashing so hard its unbearable.
The shallow rumbling of the thunder takes
its toll, sending a slow shiver down my spine.
The sun is still shining behind the angry
clouds mocking the rain. Humilating it.
The storms anger grows stronger and
hides the bright shining beauty making
it dark.
The wind is still blowing a little softer
now, and the happy dance of rain has slowed
down. The sun reappears only to be defeated
yet again
