In Sync With The Rain

The sky swirls with dark clouds
Crackle, boom, the rain falls
Giving plants and animals rhythm
To build a gentle melody upon.
Huddled, birds are chirping along
Constant croaks from frogs come to and from
A mash-up of sounds bond
It flows, it varies, a creative bomb.
The life of the forest, harmonious with the storm
The choir of animals resound
Jewelled, plants have changed form
The blissfulness surrounds.
Let your worries cease
It's fine, just breathe
Feel the comfort you sought
In sync with the rain, our minds are
Free from thought
