~ The Storm ~
She sat and watched as the storm rolled in
From across the western sky
The clouds grew dark, and the lightning flashed
And then she began to cry
She could not explain why she felt so blue
Or why her heart was in so much pain
Then suddenly came a loud clap of thunder
And then it began to rain
Oh how the wind did blow and trees did bend
The rain poured with all it's might
And she walked the floor and trembled
As she cried on through the night
As the storm raged on, so her termoil too
And the wind it took it's toll
But when it was over, it had refreshed the earth
Just as her tears had refreshed her soul
