The sky grows dark, the winds arise,
Clouds gather thick, blocking the skies.
Thunder rumbles, lightning strikes,
Nature’s fury, a fearsome sight.
Trees bend low, leaves take flight,
Rain pours down, a relentless might.
The world is caught in tempest’s grip,
As waves crash and oceans flip.
Yet in the heart of chaos wild,
There’s a momentary, gentle smile.
A calm within the storm’s embrace,
A fleeting peace in nature’s face.
And as the storm begins to wane,
The sun peeks through, dispelling rain.
The world, renewed, takes a breath,
After the storm’s dramatic test.
