rainstorm whips meadows
trembling like faded, pale sheets
my breath wails with them
till a crack on soil appears...
awakening newborn grass
Brainstorm
faith’s open palms
vigilant in drought
sunburns brighter, moonshines boozy
grinning
Rainstorm
rustling the leaves
slurry stirred by lightning
overindulging town prayers
applause
Only the moon sees
and feels the fierceness of storm
sky keeps her eyes closed
Everyone needs an Awakening once in awhile in life to keep them on their toes
Sky opens and pours it's sorrow into the angry waves
If
we
look through
our
dreams
then
we
shall
look
inside the rainstorm
The rain falls silently
Only sounding when it hits
The ground and the surroundings
Collecting puddles where it sits
Purity of water as it
Falls now from the sky
Followed by the petrichor
As the pathways start to dry
When and hour or two have passed
It shows in verdant grasses
returning now to lush and green
As the rainstorm gently passes.
Sunlight and Rainstorms
Clear sunlight and rainstorms play games of tag
As bluebirds perch on rainbows

dark clouds rolling in
there's a big rainstorm coming
feel it in the air
Falling for you is like a rainstorm,
A little at a time and then it all came crashing in.
And we were so happy because of the rain.
We laughed and splashed around in puddles.
We were like kids in a candy store,
So excited and in our own world.
It was simply the most beautiful thing.
But when the rain got mixed with the wind,
Things started to break and the power went out.
And just as the rain started a sprinkle with a smile,
It ended with tears and some screams.
But even after the storm we still saw a rainbow.
And maybe the next storm we will remember,
It will pass and we will be okay.
Torrential rainstorm
screaming loud and crying hard
So I don’t have to.
Summer Rain Storm
stormy, shuttered, lightening
I run fast for shelter
Summer's rainstorm
humidity hot
thunderstorms
I wish it wouldn't

Rainstorm batters trees
broken branches-scattered leaves
kitten sleeps by kitchen stove.
The woman made her way the through
Biting, howling, winds and chilling rain.
The fire of love for her Romeo, her
passion, saved her from this earthly
vexation.
She walked in a starlit erotic trance,
His forever eyes, his being...were her
" jouissance" and protection!
(Definition...enjoyment, delight,pleasure!)

Into the evanescing night
Floats hope, now restrained to a dream
Within the edges which incite
Tales clinging unto the extreme :
Russet of summer, ebb of tide
Blows whispers as rainstorm nears
Its last heaving when moons provide,
A bright glint reflecting my tears.
Although long my amble on hills
Time does bestow my earnest bid,
To forgive, a strife from love's chills
Allowing mist to end tight grid--
Old stories drown under seafloor
Through August , warm the hues blending...
For magical is the beam ashore
My heart at peace ...never-ending.
