Raindrops' Respite
Thunder threatens to split open scared sky,
Lightning lightens up the moody madcap weather,
Delightful downpour plashing patters,
Sultry summer cools down, God's blessing bestowed,
Refreshing rain drenches driveways,
Shifty showers gush from dark-grey clad clouds,
Raindrops' respite from heat helps us wind down.
