A Sound

Sitting by the sea, the sounds of the waves dancing with the sand, heaven lingering above. In the distance, dark clouds rumble. A brisk wind sends the sea into angry swells. The water and crashes into the sand. Thunder echoes through the air. Rain begins in the distance like a train. The sound grows louder as it nears. The drops of rain beat the sand with a fierce rage. In an instant, it's gone. The clouds evaporate into the heavens and the waves gently caress the sand as though comforting each grain. The sun sinks into the sea and the night begins again.
