Wet Weather

There are storms moving through our area today, long awaited and a near deluge. While looking at Facebook, a poem tossed through my noggin, and I could not Tweet it, so wanted to post it here instead. So, here goes:



Rain is falling all around, 

soaking into hard-packed ground. 

Lightning flashes, thunder booms, 

rattling things in every room. 

The light is dim and skies are grey, 

but it won't always be that way. 

Enjoy it while it lasts!
