I sit and watch it rain tonight

Thunder is clapping and the

Lightening is bright

I feel the breeze

Swirling all around

I hear the rain drops

Splatter on the ground

Storms bring more than

Water to our earth

Sit and listen for all it is worth

Feel the peacefulness

The smell in the air

Let yourself go

If you should dare

Watch the water cleanse the earth

It's a magical, impressive

New kind of rebirth

Open your soul

Let it fly high

Let it fly high through the

The illuminated sky

Storms have a way of making

Us take note

The chances you would be

Sorry are so remote

Storms and rain make you

Take a break for awhile

Just sit down and wait

And watch with a smile

See how things look when

The storm is gone

You won't feel so sad

And so withdrawn

Sit and feel the rain on your face

Just sit and enjoy

This tranquil place

When everything is gone and

There is peace at last

The feeling you have then

Will be unsurpassed
