Hey all!I’m back with my first etheree, titled “Rain”. Enjoy!
Rain,
The skies
Black with rage,
Shower their wrath,
A cold battle waged,
As clouds dribble raindrops,
Cyclones unleash winds enraged,
Thunderstorms brew and lightning strikes,
The world consumed by destruction grave;
A breathtaking yet cataclysmic sight.
-The Forgers of Fantasy

This mirrors what’s happening outside in my city today. I suspect you are from the same city and this poem was inspired by the cataclysmic sight outside.

No, it is throughout my state and some of my adjacent states too. Most of the south-east coast of the peninsular is getting battered. Mine is one of the biggest metropolitan cities in the south, and hence the focus.

Flooding has been really bad this year! The more land we clear the less trees there are to hold the water in check, along with other causes. Great poem
