Musings While Looking at a Storm Through the Window

If rain is Nature's shower, then what is lightning?

Nature's hairdryer in the tub?

No, I don't like that thought; moving on.

If rain is Nature's tears, then what is thunder?

Nature's angry, booming yells?

Never mind; what else is there?

 

I can't think; water pellets bulleting the roof

Make thinking too hard.

And sleeping.

And existing.

 

Clear glass provides no protection

So I must consider these thoughts.

A lighning strike, a thunder roar;

They are coming closer.

What to do

When they arrive at the doorstep?

 

The thunder is in my head now,

Pounding a beat without rythme. 

I'd better unlock the windows

And make preparations

For lightning's nearing arrival.

It has been raining a lot over the past month and this has caused many headaches lately so... the prose above resulted.
