Beauty In a Storm

ocean squall at dawn brilliant rainbows burst through clouds nature's high drama Wind whipped waves tumble over rocky shores pounding the beach in a gathering storm. A red flag flaps wildly in gusty winds warning sailors to avoid perilous seas. Crimson rays blaze across the horizon in a grand burst of reflective splendor. Seagulls draft high winds as raindrops come drumming musical notes, a watery score as stunning rainbows light the sky once more. Written on 11/4/2015

Laura, I think the first couplet is supposed to be rhymed. Like the take on the theme.

Thanks, John, but I think I'm done. I've spent too much time on this and have writer's block ;)
