    Afternoon Storms

    Sitting on the front porch, on a cloudy day
    The skies, are turning a dark gray and churning above
    I sit back and wonder what a storm this one could be
    The wind, begins blowing hard, and a has a cold chill to it
    Soon the air smells like rain, the lightening strikes, and thunder roars
    I wonder: Should I take cover or just sit back and let nature take it course?!
    Soon the wind chimes, begin to chime......... swinging back and forth as they rhyme
    I take a step, towards the steps....to watch in the horizon as the storm rumbles closer
    My heart begins beating faster, as I will soon be in the rain storm that will change the day
    There it is........with its colliding winds, symmetrical force and part of natures worse, and best!
    This certain storm, does no harm; Just letting all things take in the water and keep growing
    It has now gone....Fast and Furious, yet soft and gentle...

    I love the way you keep me looking for the worse....then, 'Fast and Furious, yet soft and gentle'
