Deep of night
the raindrops start,
heavy and hard
on roof and across
the fence and yard.
turning ground into a puddle
all becomes a muddle.
dripping down from the eves,
mushy sounds on the leaves.
Rumble, Boom with the thunder,
CRACK, CRASH the lightening
flash and slash.
makes me shiver in my bed,
like a child, I pull
the quilt, over my head.
sleepless, lying there.
I decide in my despair,to
get up and see about
making a warm cup
of tea.
warm, soothing, I sip
savoring the citrus scent,
listen to water, drip until,
good, it's finally spent.
back to bed, cozyly,
I am sent
