Summer Event

Summer winds blowing suddenly
Nomadic clouds join urgently
Quick care to be taken at once
Friends meet sputtering to enounce
Restless they flounce, they jounce and trounce
In thunderbolts of angry heart
Settled to darken the sun's art

Storming winds booming clouds sending
Firing army of forked lightning
A smoky ceiling sealing sun
A healing pour on burnt earth done
What an event special to stun
In thunderbolts of angry heart
Settled to darken the sun's art
