The Storm



A thundrous storm and dark dreary sky,
A hard chilling rain and ferocious blowing
wind inevitably tell the tale of our lives.
The tention builds, the strom worsens and all
seems lost forever.
Clouds move in fast, lightening strikes,
thunder blasts.
Nipping winds, trees bending in agony, rivers
flood, nothings as it should be.
Then the clouds pass, the sun seems to peek,
the wind is just a breeze and the trees are strong and tall.
All is calm and at last, hope returns to all.
