Listen to poem:

O'er a vast horizon, a thunderstorm ignites bestill gloaming. A gripping disruption transform, despair owning. Flickering streaks rend the upper regions, shortly came the pouring, unleashing droplets like legions, ...it's rage roaring. The hazy mist that first visits my panes, now lines form from drizzling. Spots here and there, the dripping gains, serves a quisling. More and more the collection keeps draining upon my window panes, solely repeatedly raining, drips constant drains. A leather book opened filled with photos, e'er so oft a flipping, tissues of pain souls the shadows, teardrops dripping.
