Thunder boomed


Thunder boomed, lightning flashed 
Splintering the grey skies
Peeling back the dark clouds
Fleeing now from our eyes

All men and beasts cowered
Bruised now by nature's wrath
Now deluded they would
Escape a sudden bath

Brims of hats they now dripped
And watercourses flowed
Ducks relished their present
Or so the story goes

Nature took her revenge
Blue blanks of sky now neared
Sun emerged unruffled
Her boon of warmth appeared

    The never-ending rivalry of the sun and the rain. Not forgetting they serve a specific purpose complementary to each other!
