All calm and quiet after the storm

Trees all bent, broken looking forlorn,

There’s beauty and quietness down the ravine,

Glistening in the sun, many shades of green.

 

Silently the rain still gently falls

You can hear the distant waterfalls,

Smell the aroma of rain mixed on the breeze

It’s tranquil sereneness, a magical tease.

 

A rainbow falls down to the ravine,

Watch the gentle flow of the stream

Catch a glimmer in a flash

Hear the sound of water splash.

 

The stream will flow to a destined place

Amazing, the ripples have such grace,

Large raindrops now fall through the trees

Around a gentle warm, refreshing breeze.

 

The raindrops quickly slip away

To leave a warm summers day

Sunlight peeps through the trees around

Warming natures earthly ground.
