The Storm

black swirling clouds close in sight
rain drops dancing as they fall
booming thunder shakes the night
lightning amazes and terrifies all

the wind howls and screams away
hail stones hit the muddy ground
no little children out to play
only the storm is out and around

soon the sun starts to come out
the rain has stopped, the dark will go
even though there is still some doubt
everyone looks to see the rainbow
