Storm

The silken threads of darkness weave their way across the sky causing day to turn to night. Rolling clouds clash together bringing spears of light and sound and then one cries a million teardrops to splash upon the ground. More dark clouds rumble together and blue streaks momentarily light up the darkened sky. Everything shelters best it can from the wanton storm as it continues to fight its way above their heads. Soon the last teardrops are shed and day returns again. A single arch of colours lingers under the sun once the storm has passed angrily on its way. 21 October 2009
