Looking up
higher than high
irregular energies
flood from a hole in the sky
sometimes hot, other times,
more cool than not
between shadows i feel it
touching everything far and near
when its cloud curtains obscure it
and cool air swiftly comes
from dark heavy clouds
An opening act by lightning
with a thunderous refrain
then there's rain playing
a special concert for us
a gift from the sun,
no need to complain
it will soon pass
its dog don't bite
lets be children of the sun,
lets hold hands and play
pretend its love from
momma's sweet kisses
striking everything in sight,
surrounding us with sounds
striking trees, hitting leaves
sending ripples on ponds
as the birds sing, their thanks
for the wealth of food
nature may bring
in times like these
sometimes, it disappears
near the end of each day
but, have no fear
it happens nearly
the same time
every day
