Wonderful, Glorious Storms

A fresh wind is
Sweeping through
With the first rainfall
Of the season
Set aside those humid, muggy
Scorching summer days
Give me fresh
Invigorating
New breath in my lungs
Give me gusts
Gulps of rich sky
Winds that whip the wisps
Of hair around my head
In a free and wild
Heavenly halo
Bring the heavens to me
Bring me skies that sing
With voices clear and ringing
Bring me clouds clapping
Jubilant and joyful
Bring me torrents
Or only a trembling sprinkle
Of rain inviting
New life with every drop
Oh skies, oh wind
Oh wild rains
Sing to me
Keep singing
