clouds crystalize
raindrops dissolve light into
diamond dewdrops
sunshine is a memory
but cleansing tears renew life

Yes, the sound on a roof is beautiful. I like to sit out in my enclosed porch during summer storms and watch the trees whip around and rain come in buckets. But we don’t get tornadoes.
