A Cloudy Day

The banging of thunder, the lightning is striking,
The sound of rain on the tin roof,
Water-tanks over flowing,
Card games, board games,
No power at all,
Our phones are all dead,
Aurora is how we can’t call,
No matches, no candles, no fire to keep us warm,
All we want to do is say bye to this storm.
The storm has vanished,
The sky is alight,
What I can see is beyond my sight,
The glistening of the copper tin,
Is difficult to believe,
It’s a glistening bright day.
