Songs of a Summer Storm

Have you ever considered, how a storm is like a song? The stronger it is, the better it sounds. Think about it.

impregnate clouds fill a soot-blackened sky. 
drops fall, hammering earth while pouring down.

rumbling erupts overhead head.
like a volcanic eruption, darkness of night 
is transformed into a light show,
by purple flashes and crackling bolts 
that can't be silenced. 

there is no moon to be seen, 
not a single star visible to your eye. 
picking up speed, the rain falls more rapidly, loudly. 

it can awaken a person in their sleep. 
winds grow restless, and rattle shingles, 
they begin to beat on the front and sides of houses 
near windows and doors. 

thunder and lightning come together, 
creating firework displays in the skies.
it keeps you up always. sleep disturbed, 
incomplete.

you are alone at night, lying in bed, 
listening to songs of a summer storm.
