The Storm

Can you hear that? It's the quiet before the storm Lets take the tour. You may have seen one similar.... Silence takes over the meadow sweeps through the trees and soon takes over the whole forest... Now is when the thunder comes rolling as if it were warning you of how tremendous it is. A flash of lightning lights the sky on command... The rain comes next, touching the forest all over with a tingling sensation. As the rain pours down , the forest remains still while filling with the sweet tangy aroma of fresh rain. A crash of thunder shakes the entire ground and lighting strikes filling the forest with a bright light. The forest, scared, gives in to the storm, lets it take over, meanwhile lighting strikes and thunder rolls. The damp forest accepts this. The sparks of lighting egnite the fire inside. Rain won't stop this warmth from growing, and taking over the forest, emrabcing its clutches... The rain soon realises its no use..... ... Seen it before, you may have, The storm has now settled and the fire has windled down to embers glowing hot along side the rain..
