Spring Storm
Clouds and sky enraged
Whirling angry messages
Thunder is its voice
Crashing and banging
Crackles of lightning and limbs
Hail pounding pavement
Leaves rustling about
Wind swirling and crying out
Then comes the silence
Howling winds begin
Moans of fury from cyclones
Raindrops tap loudly
Thrashing of buildings
Trees uprooted and thrown down
Path of destruction
Wind turns to whispers
And raindrops drip rhythmically
Serene once again
* inspired by Raul Moreno’s Sounds of Nature contest.
