Sudden storm

crystals gray lie

     reposed rest prolonged

trembling stirring rising

     flight carrying away

 

whispering frigid movement

     racing quickly on

plucking pulling lifting

     water stored in a way

 

wavelets rolling softly

     retaining sunlit warmth

peaks foaming splashing

     stolen warmth flying up

 

transparent fountains ascending

     gushing racing high

frigid stratosphere cooling

     turbulent rolling flow

 

vapors condensing forming

     castles dreams can see

whiteness filling darkening

     heaviness crashing descending

 

shearing tearing descending

     breeze torn to shreds

grabbing tearing carrying

     roaring across the land

 

pounding harshly hitting

     splashing droplets flung

smashing crushing forcefully

     drenching tearing down

 

droplets forming puddles

     filling to overflow

seeking flowing downward

     quickly race across the land

 

Flowing streamlet’s gather

     swelling creeks do grow

rushing in to rivers

     flowing into the sea

 

dim grayness fading

     beaming light swells

sparkling grains like diamonds

     flashing now in the sun
