SQUALL

 

The grey skies are stormy and wild,

Strong winds gust and batter the land,

Rain carried by the squall

Peppers the windows like gravel

And stings the faces of the unfortunate traveller

God protect those caught abroad

On such a foul day as this

The winds whistle round the buildings

And make rag dolls of the trees

Being inside looking out is preferable

Warming by the fire with glass in hand

Loved ones safe about you

Ride out the storm in comfort

Until the stormy gales subside

BATHED IN SUMMER SUNSHINE

  Bathed in summer sunshine Gentle breezes stir the stems But above in the golden sun Grow an array of perfect gems
