A Sense of Thunder

Gupitty gup went the rain in the drain.
Doinkety doinkity dunk.
Plunkity plunk went the gutters again
It spluttered and muttered and plunked.
Then came the light which I saw in the sky
Zapping and splatting and crinkling high.
It zigzagged and flashed and crinkled so fast
It snaked up with vigor, it sounded at last.
Grumble kaBOOOM went the thunder too soon
Drumming and drumming kaBAM.
Grumble then mumble and tumble it went,
Then it started all over again.

    To see the dentist on the moon
    And find the next Uber at noon.
    To live in a space among the stars
    I'd have to float to school in cars.

    Her petals shivered.
    Its breath ran slowly
    down
    her stem and
    tickled a leaf.
