Sun Shower

The sun hides his brilliance

Behind billowy clouds,

White, fluffy cotton,

Hiding what’s about to come.

The wind has shifted,

The leaves have turned,

Boldly showcasing the silvery-gray velvet

Of their undersides.

And as if by a switch,

The sky turns dark,

And the rain,

Begins to fall.
