It Rained

Mute palms come alive –

The rainbow gives a stoked smile

From fluffy white clouds

Clayey soil is muddy –

Children dancing and singing

To liven things up

Chimney exudes fumes –

Silence begins to give way

For antsy laments

Two cherry roofs stripped –

The sky roars in frightening fury

To arouse our fears

The shy sun surfaced –

It rained in my neighbourhood

Leaving behind ghouls
