Thunder Storm

The rain would fall
The thunder would roar
The lightning would strike
Rain drops fall like babies tears
Thunder rolls like a lion's roar
Lightning flashes like blue lights on a cop car
Puddles Expand
Power goes out
Many children scream
My heart stops
I become afraid
I hear the sound of rain
Pouring out of the sky
The rain takes over
Big drops of water
Like cannon balls
Fall from above
Hitting hard against the the window
The rain dropping is the only sound
Lightning flashes and glows the darkened room
The thunder roars wildly
More screams seep through the walls
My hearts not beating
I'm still not breathing
Scared for my life
Sit and wait for the storm to end.
