Hoping For Relief

The sun has been blazing For at least a week Well over one hundred degrees A cool night is all we seek I heard the thunder I saw the lightning As it ripped apart the sky I know to some it is frightening Shortly afterward the rain fell As hard as I've ever seen In fact it interrupted me In the middle of a dream But the rain didn't help In cooling anything down Not looking forward to tomorrow As the same weather will stay around The lightning started fires In the dry lands all around The fires are being fought From the air and on the ground I just hope the weather Finds a way to cool down So it makes it possible For some comfort to be found 8-19-20/RjH
