Thunder releases its battle cry
as lightning slashes the dark night sky
rain drenches the sleeping land
awakening a thirsty, needy demand.
This greedy ground
soaks up rain ravenously
...and the clouds continue to release
this downpour that does not cease
amidst the loud violence of the night.

I love our thunderstorms and the falling rain. Tampabay, Florida, is the lightening capital of the nation, not always an envied trait.
