Excellence Award in the 'Word Zone 2016' competition

Rain tipping,
On leaves dipping,
On water dripping,
In the middle of a storm.
Lightning flashing,
To thunder crashing,
To winds smashing,
In the centre of the storm.
Crickets are flopping,
Whilst frogs are hopping,
Whilst possums are stopping,
In the climax of the storm.
Trees are felling,
When puddles are swelling,
When people are yelling,
In a storm.
