Storms Fury

Dark grey clouds begin to form in the morning sky 
Strong winds develop leaves begin to fly
In the distance, a boom of thunder creates a sinister sound 
Rain pours from the heavens scattering children from a nearby playground 
Up above lightning dances across the sky 
Small planes become grounded far too dangerous to fly
Storm drains start to overflow too much water to bare 
Time to seek shelter no time to spare
Trees from a nearby forest begin to sway side by side 
A car pulls up the driver offers me a ride
An act of kindness I can’t refuse 
I found my escape from this incredible deluge
