Whirling Winds Wail

The sky becomes synonymous with grey,
signifying a storm is on its way.
And a sullied sun swiftly slips away;
allowing shadows to overcome day,
and clouds to release droplets straightaway.
Thunder echoes across purple-bruised skies
as lightning strikes cause drops to vaporize.
And a deluge descends to claim its prize;
while whirling winds wail, and all nature cries.
Treetops get tossed and bullied by each gust
as brisk breezes suddenly feel robust;
the change is swift; there's no time to adjust.
Broken by a murmured mantra of sound;
silence acquiesces as raindrops pound.
And pellets of ice get viciously hurled!
Everything is in scattered disarray,
as twisters start to materialize.
Hail and rain meld into an icy crust;
that turns the streets into a battleground,
and neighborhoods into a netherworld.
