The Calm Before the Storm
In the distance the thunder rolls
As the wind makes its presence known
The leaves on the trees nervously await
Once again, to be helplessly thrown
The flowers bow down to the winds mighty hand
As the birds look for some place to hide
The angry clouds are all gathered in force
To deliver its vengeance inside
The sun now imprisoned, it fights to be free
But its victory is no where in sight
The clouds are too many, for the sun to defeat
And together they smother its light
The very earth begins to shiver and shake
At the sound of the thunders deep voice
It begs for mercy and for the suns intervention
But the clouds give the sunshine no choice
The silence is deafening as the sun breaks through
And the thunder is made to conform
But it's only an illusion, the clouds use to deceive
The calm before the storm
