A Storms Sad Song

As I lay in the grass I feel the wind sweep through me-
 I stare into the face of the sky, he stares back at me with his swollen face and yet 
looks as if he’s wants to cry- 
the clouds race by without looking back there’s a storm up ahead-
 still laying there, I hear the thunder roar and listen to the sad song the sky has to 
offer-
 trying to understand, I cant quite comprehend and out of the sky it starts to rain, 
his tears of sadness soak my clothes-
 as I stare blankly into the open field drops of rain stream down my face-
 a flash of lightning fills the sky, and wakes me from my daze the rains starts to 
quiet down, 
I’m some how mesmerized, Such a mystery, that song, to what exactly he was 
trying to say I’ll never know, or understand, But to be there in the moment, was a 
chance in a lifetime, And I will never forget it
