Here comes the rain......

The skies darken over head
as clouds start rolling in
there appears much heaviness
you can feel it slowly begin

as air starts to change now
like a weight on my shoulders
as the first large drops of rain
makes the day seem colder

skies look so foreboding
it feels like the dead of night
almost claustrophobic
wow, it`s such an eerie sight

then the flood gates open
torrential rain pours down
thundering on the roof tops
making you feel all will drown

for me, curled up on my sofa
this is where I will reside
so let the stormy skies pour
I`m warm and snug inside.
