Storm Warning

Overcast the day
  painted slate blue and gray
taps on the roof gently fall
  as the ground slicks rains pall.

Cool the February calm
  with icy rain the seasons balm
stealth and slow the cloud cover
  waiting patient hold at hover.

Wintry mix of rain, ice and snow
  sweeps light across the misty flow
easing in throughout the morning
   marking time in solemn warning.

Start to a new week
  Monday morning creeks
winter's promise foretold
  a stormy day to unfold.
