A Midnight Summer's Rain
By: Adam M. Snow

 

Rain pounding 'gainst my window;
the sound of thunder, wind blow.
Flashes of lightning, silhouettes of shadows;
a nature’s melody for me to dance to.

 

My face drips wet by mid-summer's rain;
I spin with the wind, emotionally sane.
Roaring thunder race a crackling smash,
still I dance on; no care, no care.
Throughout the night, the storm rages still,
and I left to watch this mid-summer's thrill.

Author's Note

I wrote this around 1 or 2:00 in the morning during a thunder storm.

'Flashes of lightning, silhouettes of shadows;
a nature’s melody for me to dance to.'

Beautiful singing and dancing in the rain. Thunderstorms are dramatic natures way of showing whose boss.
