2nd in the 'The Text Generation 2014' competition
The rain powered down, shattering as it hit the Earth,
thunder pounded across the sky, chasing after the quick and agile lightning.
The low hanging clouds were threatening to close in on the world,
as they cruelly did to the sun.
Choppy seas snapped at the dark, hellish sky,
only to be dragged back down to the shadowy depths of the ocean.
Trees held onto the ground for dear life,
as they were painfully stripped of their rotten and decaying leaves.
The ground shuddered, and the unforbading sound of the harsh,
stinging wind echoed eerily through the storm.
Sadness and sorrow was everywhere, Mother Nature had finally rebelled.
God... Was weeping.
