Rain poem
As the rain gently falls from the dark grey clouds I can see the light droplets falling on the cold hard ground.
As lightning flashes from the sky the rain comes crashing down from the dark grey clouds is becoming louder and louder.
As the rain droplets slowly dripping down a dark red rose eventually hitting the vibrant green stem as if we were in a bright colourful rain forest.
The clear blue water droplets gently falling from the dark gloomy grey clouds .
Boom! Went the thunder Crash! Went the lightning all night long.
As the rain was quivering down the window as if it was crying from the cold breeze crashing against the window.
