Rainstorm

Summer Rain Rainstorm Midsummer’s voice bellows in the thunder. It’s deep and husky as the heat is high. Skylights flash in atmospheric wonder, to clearly say a storm is passing by. Forceful winds tear weak trees all asunder, as the rain pours like silver from the sky. Summer rain doesn’t like to fall alone. It brings thunder to liven up the tone. 6/19/17

Great Ottave Rima. I love the Italian rhymes a lot, Terza Rima being my personal favorite.

Very well done. I can feel the stifling humidity even with the rain. and no matter what I do I can't dry off after a shower.
