Menacing clouds

 

Menacing clouds

open scars

in the grey swirling skies.

Surveying the ground,

through rage-tinged

eyes of the storm.

With vicious

silver-lined smiles,

they expel

a low rumbling growl.

Slow like a bass line,

deep and loud.

An animal prowling

the deserted sky.

Ready to strike

with fury.

Vengeful.

Angry.

Judge, jury,

executioner.

A Flash. Blinding.

Loud crashes,

smashing my mind

against walls of sound.

Strobe lightning

strikes down.

Blankets the sky in white.

Night turned to day

in the blink of an eye.

Deluge downpour,

cascades

of rain falls

for what feels like forever.

An eternity

of soaked earth.

Saturated, waterlogged

clods of dirt.

Then the wind blows,

cloud herds migrate

across the sky-shaped landscape.

The sun finally escapes

from her grey prison cell

drying us off, warming our hearts,

making us feel well.
