A Storm

Inspired by rain storms everywhere.

There's a storm a brewing
You better batten down the hatches
The clouds are filling,
and turning an old gray

There's a storm a brewing
You better get inside
The sky is tearing up
Ready to let it all out

There was a storm a brewing
But now it's here
The thunder is rolling
Kind of like a bowling ball
Going down a lightning alley

The storm is fading away
Into fog and into the flowers
Into fields and lakes and rivers
Into drains and back home to the clouds

The storm is gone now
You can open the windows
Let the cool, clean air fill your senses
Time to put away the board games

The storm is gone now
All that's left are the memories
And the fresh smell
that the rain left behind
