The trees went bent, made way for the winds,
The flowers lay pretty no more,
Broken twigs, Bent, swept away,
Gently rose from none,
the Downpour.
Grew angrier by the moment,
Soft spoken raindrops,
Ominous Nimbus,
Maneuver the light.
Waters rose from down below,
Unto fittings heights of fright,
The feared fists of the humble creator,
Gently rose with fearful might.
Leaves hurled along, in circles,
Lay trembling, hearing thunders Roar,
Leaving bits of past, in ruins,
Gently rose from none,
the Downpour.
Went to dust, in a blink, creations,
End of time, in sight,
Rueful shrieks of lost, arose,
To stand adrift the smite.
And from neigh, its calm again,
Stagnant, Sky, Azure,
Smearing fright, on hopeful creations,
Gently left, the Downpour.
