I gather the wind placing the storm
Inside my head thunders and lightenings roll
storm
My eyes see at naught the lights
Inside my head thunders and lightenings roll
storms
My eyes see at naught the lights
Lightnings flashings torrent babbles of cosmic flares
storms
storm
Lightnings flashings torrent babbles of cosmic flares
I gather the wind placing the storm

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2023©
A hypnotizing drip drip
of the rain pounds outside
on the gravel driveway
In a steady calming beat in
natures lullaby bringing all
to a mesmerizing sleepy state
Thunder rumbles in the
background like a base drum
rolling with a crash of
lightening as cymbals in a
symphony of sounds
A cool breeze weaves
between each drop of rain
to float in caressing your
warm face bringing a chill
down your spine
A softer pitter-pat hits the
window-sill with everyother
drop tapping at the window pane
A faster tempo splashes in
the mud puddle with a splish
splash adding yet more sounds
to natures symphony
When thunder again rolls
with lightenings cymbals crash
The cool breeze bobs and
weaves through the rain to
kiss your face with its
coolness calming you, taking
you deeper into a tranquil sleep
All around are transformed
into a restful state from
the soothing rhythm
of natures relaxing song
This is an older poem! I use to love the rain but any more.... I really am so tired of it! But this was written to make a friend feel better! Maybe it will make me feel better now!:)
Dear Archie,
It's best you find your bunker
The world as we know it
Has certainly gone asunder
Political correctness
Don't it make you wonder
If we should be taking names
And writing down their numbers
Oh and Archie,
Lucky now your six feet under
Out of lightenings range
And all the man made thunder
Those were the days
We could laugh like murder
At each other
Goodbye Archie bunker
