The thunder sounds from far away, wild wind runs before it carrying whispers of the coming storm. Clouds are dark and gray like cloistered nuns escaping hell, and bursting out with rain. Lightning flashes her skirts and her consort thunder gives chase, disregarding those beneath their feet. Wind and rain keep the beat of the storm's tempestuous dance, becoming cyclone's destructive stance.
