After a storm

thundering clouds roll across the sky

then swells and begins to cry.

flash of light, growl of anger, a flaming tree.

everything begins to flee.

the deadly sheets of rain 

fall and cause the fire pain.

the flame starts to die 

as the rain waves goodbye 

the wind begins to blow

the clouds, and a fawn and doe

crawl out from their protection

to examine the sky with a new connection.

water falls from every branch,

birds come out and chant:

'the storm is gone 

so now we can sing our songs.

everyone can come and play

to celebrate a new day.'

the sun appears 

and drys away the clouds tears,

and colors sparkle everywhere.
