"A Stormy Day and a Cup of Tea"

I love a cloudy, sun blocked, dark clouds rolling in, grey day.

I am lazy personified on a typical sun drenched day with the heat melting my rubber soles but give me a good storm brewing and suddenly I am pulsing with energy and racing thoughts.

At the first clap of thunder, I brew a cup of tea and find a window to watch the clouds darken over head. I'm mesmerized by the sway of the trees as the wind increases seconds before the sudden downpour of teeming rain begins with the artistic dance of lightning.

The power of nature in its intensity is simply magnificent.

When a storm takes hold of the land it is a force to be reckoned with. Waves churning in the ocean, hail falling on a summer day; cool, blustery, rain tumbling like drum taps down the drainpipe- all part of an honest to goodness, water drenched, grey day.

The fear of nature’s power awakens but the electricity dancing in the sky, defies you to look away.
