Storm's Envy
Rumbling turmoil lets out roars
Opposite to the quiet seas
Midnight darkness proudly soars
Moving, shaking all the trees
Connected is a charming world
Making all billows serene
Creatures swam, twirled, and whirled
She ignored her envy, as if not seen
The beauty of the shimmering waves
Angered her and lightning struck
Oh the glamour how she craves
Like a broken record her mind was stuck
It soon became too unruly
Even for the roaring tides
No mercy show, and always cruelly
Their rage so heavily collides
The dance swirled and twisted as snakes
Moving all things in the way
So much that the ground had begun to shake
Swaying, swaying for a many day
In the end when all was done
Her guilt roared and so she cried
The humble sea smiled,
as she apologized
Though the envy was far from gone
She now enjoyed her bits of charm
And finally the ugly duckling
became a so lovely swan

The clouds darkened overhead and I smiled. I had missed the days when the sky cried. It made me feel inspired. Many do not know the beauty of storms and rain. I remember going to the beach when I was young and swimming in the crystal blue water when my mom would tell me
"Its gonna rain we have to go."
I used to hate it, but now I love it. It provides wramth and life to everything. I felt like many hated them so much much that she hated herself, but in the end she realized what beauty lied within the storms.
