Stealing what the day won
grey clouds evoke despair,
choking a waning sun.
A dullness dims the air
and flower petals close,
in order to prepare.
Bruised indigo splotches
dapple diminished blues,
with dark purple blotches.
Flashing within the gloom
lightning intensifies;
with a thunderous boom.
And its jagged claws scratch
at the air in the sky,
searching out drops to snatch.
But such strikes are in vain;
electrical talons,
can not grasp drops of rain.
