Weather Forecast

storm clouds roll in 
doesn't matter that it's 80 degrees
 the  lightening thrashes in deep purple sky
thunder sounds like a pack of peterbuilts 
the wind whips in all directions as
rain begins to fall
 cooling down to 68
 it fills empty spots in ground
giving life back
all night rain pours
filling gauge
morning comes and all is done
blue skies filled with white clouds
as if nothing ever happened
