thunderclap
without bending
its cultural boundaries
Skin pores poured out stored water from within,
Light shadows of the sunshine were laid bare,
Previous rainfall drought dried out the skin.
Many beg God for new rains to begin,
That long-lost comfort flies 'bove in the air.
The next day thunderclap shattered the peace,
Heavy rainfall fully emptied the streets,
The weather, once again, became so nice.
Tearful sky pleads to let raindrops release.
Many joyously dance to the rain beats.
"Thunder is the sound of heavens clapping."

dark sky exploded
as loud as a firecracker
still silence broken ~
childhood fear resurfaces
hiding under soft pillows
Thunderclap here
Pitch dark clouds gather again
Sound of my fears.
distant thunderclaps
herald the coming of rain
amid the light show
