Last Night's Storm

The storm of last night brought cool air
Tree frogs have much news now to share
Perfect weather for their rainwear
Clouds everywhere, clouds everywhere

Fog in the hollow tops the creek
This gift of gray clouds' cool not bleak 
Sheer shawl fog adds its mystique
Veils of Batik, veils of Batik

The roosters in the hollow sing
Chorus of anthemns loudly ring
Air holds song accelerating
God conducting, God conducting

Sara, I am reminded that there is no feeling like that of the safety found after a storm. I've been through a few (Carla and Celia, to name two). You have captured that feeling very well..... Jake

You are doing awesomely with these monotetra's Sara! I'm enjoying them immensely! I need to try one again and post it! I'll try and do one again within the next few days, but it seems that I may not post it right away, I'm about 2 months behind in my postings, this is mainly because of the challenges of the contests! I really enjoyed reading this enlightening poem this morning! What a intriguing and sentimental piece! I just love a poem about a storm or post storm, I just love it, Great Work!!
