StormbringerDark and stormy is waiting for me
As the night begins to call
A rumbling sound with no shelter found
As the bitter raindrops fall
Lightning flashing the gods are clashing
You can hear their battle...

Symphony of Rain~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the hushed silence of the night,
Do you hear it?
The soft pitter-patter, a gentle lullaby,
Each droplet a note in nature’s symphony,
A cascading melody, winding down the windowpane.
Oh, how it sings, the rain,
A song of life,...

The Life-Giving DownpourThe sun, a tyrant, reigns with scorching might,
Days bleed together, a suffocating night.
My soul parched, I yearned for a cleansing rain,
To wash away sorrow and ease the sun's pain.

Pools amassedI formed in the heavens; they built me in a pure overcast
Concrete looks far too weak to break my fallings contrast
All flower petals decreed a landscape grown to everlast

A Rain Note From YorkshireRainfall from the heavens
Flashing lights on the horizon
Tapping drops from the skies on frilly rooftops
Whooshing splashes on leafy greens
Pit-a-pat...pit-a-pat...!, rhythmic sounds on rusty metals.
Grey sky with thin silver linings
Stretching abreast its surface with thundering...

WormsI saw a great many worms today
As they came out in the rain to play.
I said, “in this party, don’t partake -

Clouds of Grey HuesClouds of grey hues,
Swim across the air above.
A dove is flying high,
Racing to reach his nest below.

Drizzling droplets from the sky.
Pouring as it comes,
Faster and faster raindrops...

A Gentle Rain
While the dawn collects its rhythm,
Quietly protecting the whispers of a new day,
Tangerine sunsets composing chrysanthemum hymns,
Risk their gentling tones in rarest glimpses,
Through the silence, into the fated feelings,
Where truth glows and kindness flows…
Shadows...
