Ovation

Temperature rises
Steadily, gingerly
Like a frightened widow peeking out
For The coast all clear....
Rumble rumble-BOOM!!!!
temper tantrum clears the room
Water clear and cold
Rushes steady, angry, bold
Til the sod is sodden
Rivers of floods swim by
Aching swells of water
Descending from the sky.
Flashes from some far off place
Drizzle drip then stop
Grey then light
As birds take flight
Bathed in the last drop
