Thunderstorm

Stuart Watkins

Comes the rain gently wetting all the plain

Crashing bashing booms the thunder

Rudely wakening all who slumber

Slashing dashing lightning lights the sky

Wonder to behold with naked eye

Whooshing swooshing blows the wind

Forces the tallest trees to bend

Sunshine rays light up the sky

Telling all the storm will soon pass by

Birds flitter, fly, and sing their songs

Letting all know the storm is gone
