It’s been raining a lot in Texas recently. Some terrible floods, and lost homes and lives, sadly. Where I live hasn’t been hit so hard, but we’ve still gotten a lot of rain!
Raincloud
The storm clears her throat
taps fingers on my roof
bored and hovering over the city
trapped by jostling air current siblings
who shove
and push
jabbing elbows into her cloudy midsection
She grumbles
flashing a glare bright against the sky
then finally breaks free
leaving behind broken branches
flooded streets
and the crisp bright smell of rain
