Summer Cloudburst


Winds shifting quickly
the horizon growing dark
suddenly amidst the deep clouds
you catch sight of a spark.
It hurries in, summer style
bursts of energy, drenched in seconds
and the slim warning ahead
of the troubled sky.

Onward,
storms do not delay
nor do they wait,
rendering its power
upon your picnic at the lake.
Next time you better take
an umbrella
for a cloudburst is sure to occur
on any summer day.
