Poem #1
Storm clouds roll by
A steady rain begins to pound
Storm clouds roll by
White lightning flashes through the sky
Rumbling thunder shakes the ground
Windblown debris swirls all around
Storm clouds roll by

Poem #2
Sunlight breaks free
Though clouds are heavy, dark and gray
Sunlight breaks free
A single ray fills hearts with glee
Nothing remains the same, they say
Behind the storm comes a new day
Sunlight breaks free
