Thunderstorm poem

Unread post by Storm Struck »

Since things are a little low profile with the weather latly here's a poem I made up on the spot and yes iam a good writer.


As the sun awakens into the blue sky
The birds and the bees flutter and fly.

The people all happy and full of despair
that a warm summers day was blooming in the air.

Temperatures rise into the thirties
The hottest felt since the 1980's.

People flock to the beaches by huge numbers
As people begin to slosh through the water and sometimes slumber.

Away up high into the deepest sky
The clouds tower into the deep summers fry.

People continue unaware
That a Thunderstorm would soon be there.

The clouds begin to swivel and swirl
and the darker bases scream of a rumbling yell.

The biggest flashes of lightning crashes
And the people run as the lifeguard dashes.

The rain begins to saturate
As people leave the beaches with a sigh of sad and hate.

Drains fill up streets flood
And the adrenaline rushes through the thickest blood.

The booms and bangs rattle the ground
That heard from an Elephant of a familiar sound.

Hail clogs up the gutters and the spouts
After long months of summer droughts.

The loudest claps and bangs of thunder
That every bed shakes even the highest bunker.

The animals run they scamper and hide
Until all is clear and safe outside.

The storm goes on people’s hearts begin to faint
That the storm will never end or even dissipate.

The darkest fears of the coldest shivers
As the rains pour down and fill up the rivers.

The rain stops and comes to a hault
And nothing is seen not even a lightning bolt.

As the sun peaks through and the skies clear
There’s worry that a Thunderstorm will brew again this time next year.
