The Storm

 

Fluffy clouds appear above the mountains

Grey, blue and silver with faint lightening rays

No thunder is heard yet because

The storm is far away , but does not stay.

As the clouds come closer to home

The thunder is faintly heard

The sky, darkening now becomes

A mast of grey like a wild herd

Crash! Bang! lightening streaks across the sky

Boom! thunder ripples in waves

Following the path the lightening makes

To the very end it repaves

Splatter, pat, pat the rain pelts the roof

Pouring freely down the drain spout

The thunder follows the lightening

"Catch me if you can" the lightening seems to shout

Pitter, patter the rain begins to slow

As the clouds continue to roll by

The sky begins to lighten

The sound of thunder fades away in the sky.
