APRIL SHOWERS  (Unknown)

The wind blows

The sky darkens

We shiver against the cold

Black and grey

The smell of rain

Clouds grow thick and bold

 

Heavy rain falls

Drops clatter hard

Distance obscured from view

Watch the lightning

Hear the thunder

Like a witches cauldron brew

 

Head held down

Shoulders shrugged

Clutching clothes around hard

Run for cover

Rain on face

Senses live and jarred

 

Stand in shelter

Watch the sky

Wait for the break to come

April shower

Short and sweet

Then sun and stroll back home
