Evening Rain

A brief heavy downpour
-almost tropical-
stops
.......................................suddenly

dark clouds lift
a pale rainbow

swifts
dance across the sky

chimney pots
glow with evening

distant thunder
later becomes a storm

    The sudden summer storm is one of my favorite things in the whole world. You really capture it here. I like the layout of lines too.

  12. People are drawn to storms. So awesome, powerful, beautiful.
    Most things that are beautiful are dangerous, I find.
