Whimsical Thunderstorm

Drifting dark clouds race to blanket the sun
Not a bird nor insect or creature in sight
Momentarily stillness…
Tree branches brace
As silence overcomes the debris engulfed winds
Lightning supplying the only inkling of light
A sudden rumble breaks the anticipation of what’s to come
Rain begins to mist
Wind gust enhances
Clouds vigorously churn
Thunder crackles intensify
Downpour surges, drenching all in its path 
Bombarding the atmosphere through
Whimsical sounds of natural chaos 
Reluctantly unnoticed, the transformational 
Beauty of the thunderstorm
