Storm Seasons Poem by Barry Middleton

Storm Seasons

Rating: 5.0


the storm season is here
it is only a matter of time
thunderheads bloom and drift
in the overheated air

the tourists ask
does it rain here every day
I tell them every other
but only for three months

I give the advice I was given
many years ago
go to the beach anyway
and if it rains take shelter

this is the storm season
pop up showers are nothing
heed the gulf monsters
watch what lurks off Africa
