I feel a change is coming, 
And the stillness bothers me.
I stir up from my comfort,
Yet there’s nothing there to see.
The world outside looks peaceful,
 Then leaves begin to dance.
The limbs and branches soon join in;
 The flowers start to prance.

The clouds off in the distance 
Are fast approaching here;
The temperature has dropped way down.
A storm is getting near.
The sun that shone so brightly 
When I first arose from bed
Is hidden now behind the clouds.
The shadows have all fled.

Darkness has replaced the light.
The wind has reached its peak,
And then an eerie light appears. 
The clouds begin to leak.
Lightning streaks across the sky,
 And then comes shooting down.
Thunder speaks of violent doom
 To everything around.

Seeds of life now hit the roof
 With increasing speed,
The size of which I’ve never seen, 
And bruise the grassy reed.
Beads of life fall to the ground
From churning clouds above.
The ground is soaking up the spill,
 As plants are filled with love.

Now gentle rain falls aimlessly;
The storm moves on its way;
A rainbow arches 'cross the sky; 
The sun comes out to play.
I watch it all in wondrous awe
As life renews itself.
The storm that’s just moved o’er me
Speaks of life within myself.
