The rumble of the skies
Amidst the falling of the rain
And the howling of the winds
Sings a melody, so entrancing
Tis sweet music to my ears
Inspired by the events currently taking place outside my window. 🙂

Another rumble pierces the quiet
The start of another raucous riot
Thunderous sounds, lightning flashing
Clouds open up, rain falls, thrashing
Pummeling nature, impeding paradise
Flowers lay fallen, a cruel sacrifice
Through open curtains, I see it unfold
Watching as skies become uncontrolled
Then my eyes grow heavy, to stay awake I must fight
Til I fall asleep, to the sound of the rain, in the night

The winds blow strong
Like a storm, passing by
Quickly, taking all in its path
Leaves on the trees, rustling
A low pitch whistle, their cry
Of forceful air, as they gather
In a swirling dance, rhythmic
Sending them spiraling
Into places unknown
Much like the night
After the rumbling thunder
Has long been forgotten…

The sound, thunderous, like a storm unbridled. I held my head in my hands to stop the pain. It didn’t work, as the harder I pressed my fingers to my temples, the stronger the pounding became. I tried burying myself under a pillow, perhaps it would muffle the noise. I tried a different room. The sound dissipated, but only slightly, becoming a rather obnoxious thud, a cacophony of war drums, incessant and ceaseless. I dared to release my hands from my head and journey back into the other room, hoping the echoing had subsided and I could return to the peaceful silence I had before, but alas, there it was. That irritating rhythm, that knocking, that, now, what the ….? Who’s yelling?? Who’s yelling?!!
Hello!! Anyone home? Pizza delivery!
