Synonymous With Grey

A skittish sun silently slips away; a dank darkness overshadows the day. And the children must go inside to play; all outdoor games have been placed on delay. April showers, synonymous with grey, signify a spring storm is on its way. And as a sprinkle grows into a spray, everyone takes shelter like frightened prey. Lightning invokes images of doomsday, the electrified sky placed on display. And as winds blow, all is in disarray; the fabric of time and space starts to fray. But the thunderstorm soon begins to stray; cumulus clouds masking its getaway. And a bashful sun leaves its hideaway; while the rest of the day gets underway.

Absolutely charming and delightful Emile. I love your imagery - "synonymous with grey!" You always weave a magic spell with your innovative poetic language. Sending you many blessings for this autumn season! Have your fall storms started? If we don't start getting rain in November, I get a wee bit out of sorts! Congratulations!

I wish my weather forecaster would do the forecast like this, Emile. It would be far more interesting. Good job! Best of luck in the contest.

I really like this Emile. You describe a rainy day so well. Here in Alberta I think we are about to start getting our Spring showers. Hope so anyway. Yesterday we got freezing rain which turned into snow and then froze. (sigh) Nice job here. God Bless, JB
