From Storm to River


Just like dark clouds

you can tell it will rain

the storm will happen

showering the flesh in pain

 

It will crash and bang

on everything it may touch

this heavy set of rain

flowing down tear ducts

 

They predict it will continue for hours

heavy winds and stronger storms

not stopping at all

now with even heavier showers

 

Suddenly it stops

and quickly slows down

watch as the river

flows right over that frown
