Caught in a Cloudburst!
Rain lashing,
Face splashing,
Wind roaring
Storm warning,
Down pouring,
Cloud bursting,
Gutters gushing
River flooding,
Hair drenching,
Clothes soaking,
Puddle hopping,
Forked lightning,
Timbers creaking,
Roof leaking,
Thunder cracks the sky!
Wind gusting,
Brolly busting,
Gale forcing,
Scarf flapping,
Pressure rising,
Rain slowing,
Splish splashing,
Pitter patting,
Water going,
Breeze blowing,
Drops dripping,
Clouds breaking,
Silver lining,
Sun shining,
Rainbow way up high!
Face splashing,
Wind roaring
Storm warning,
Down pouring,
Cloud bursting,
Gutters gushing
River flooding,
Hair drenching,
Clothes soaking,
Puddle hopping,
Forked lightning,
Timbers creaking,
Roof leaking,
Thunder cracks the sky!
Wind gusting,
Brolly busting,
Gale forcing,
Scarf flapping,
Pressure rising,
Rain slowing,
Splish splashing,
Pitter patting,
Water going,
Breeze blowing,
Drops dripping,
Clouds breaking,
Silver lining,
Sun shining,
Rainbow way up high!
