Calm Before the Storm

Total calmness as the sun does set
                           people going bout their ways,and don`t no the  threat
                             of an abundant drastic change in weather
                                folk out on the moors knee deep in heather.

                                    Starting a drizzle,higher gust of breeze
                                      everything more or less at ease
                                        the fork lightening lit up the darkening sky
                                          women shreaking , baby gives out a cry

                                             When in the  next breath was an almighty roar
                                                on par with when a football team score
                                                   torrential down pour of large drops of rain 
                                                     the whole thing repeated over again and again.
