Putting on a Show


Clouds dark and threatening

delicious clean smell of rain

mere sprinkles dotted the sidewalk, wind had no idea which way to go!

then it was quiet………..

but not for long!


inside, I could see the trees 

waving like limp rags


rain spattered onto the balcony

thunder grumbled unconvincingly

sheet lightning concurred.

Is the show closing?


“.…what thunder there was, now grumbled over more distant hills,

like a man saying ‘And another thing’...twenty minutes 

after admitting he’s lost the argument.”

~ Douglas Adams
