Summer Storm

Long green grasses stir in the gentle breeze bright summer sun beats down upon them cool fragrant scent rises up into the air carried across the land in the gentle breeze bright blossoms of yellow shine in the sun gently wave in the breeze as they follow the sun their bright sent mixes into the air gentle summer breeze carries the scent of life land slowly rises curving up into the sky forming into mountains covered in trees rising high into the bright blue sky beneath bright white clouds riding high soft white flows higher climbing into the sky slowly darkening turning to black growing spreading covering the sun casting shadows that cover and dark the land now racing quickly covering the bright sky breeze now quickening turning to wind grasses now thrashing whipped by its strength flowers whip wildly torn by the wind in the distance rain now falls down growing ever fiercer beating the land coming ever nearer like a battle line as bright flashes appear in the sky sound barely heard whispers distantly growing quickly louder coming nearer rumbles mutter distantly heard growing ever louder becoming roars drops now falling gently down growing quicker harder now too hitting yellow blossoms violently hard blossoms close tightly curling hard grasses assaulted by falling drops their weight crushing beating to the ground flattened into the soil quickly turning to mud under dark sky roaring so loud darkness is broken by bright flashing light thunder covers sound of rain falling down cold wind roars carrying away all warmth all life is crushed by the storms might rainfall slackens fading slowly away dark clouds rise lifting away sunlight slowly pierces reaching the ground wind fades again to gusting breeze dark clouds race quickly away sunlight now falls fully on the ground steam rises into warming breeze grasses drying lift again into the sky blossoms drying opening slow petals opening into the sun fragrance again filling the air with scent of grasses already there distant mountains rise into the sky shining in sunlight covered in trees soft white clouds slowly fading away leaving the broad bright blue sky
