Sights and Sounds Above

Sights And Sounds Above By Curtis Johnson It’s late April, and almost May Day, The wind is blowing gustily; And the late Spring rain Is pouring rather heavily The quietness and the stillness, Have been disturbed and disrupted. Some things will become broken; and others will go missing But before long, the wind flow will lessen, the rain shall dissipate, and the dark dreary rain clouds will disappear Then, the sun will come with consolation; and we will no longer feel the desolation We’ll celebrate as it shines upon us gently. From the watches and warnings of tornadoes, some prior nights brought us fear and terror But tonight’s sky will be consumed with sweet stars and moon light fair. The darkness shall be forced to bow and compromise; because the moon will wipe away the tears from today’s rain Yes, the moon will pull back its curtains On the stage in the sky, and light up the night With a sheepish halo, the stars shall join their cosmic team; And gradually ascending from their recline, the stars shall radiate with massive sparkles and deep abiding calm. As the night grows old, it's clear to all that the storm has taken its toll. The breathtaking sights and sounds above have all had their say. By bedtime, all are peaceful and poised, as sweet sleep takes us away cj04302013
