Silence signals another storm
and clouds quickly form.

Thunder cracks faint, then strong,
trees whip the clouds along,
lightning dances here and there;
raindrops dash everywhere
refreshing earth and cooling air.

Soon the clouds scoot on their way
and calm descends upon the day.

As the sun resumes her stay
and puddles start to fade away,
from the trees and bushes
a pulsing-buzzing rushes
as cicadas break the bounds,
releasing all the summer sounds.
