First storm of the year
thickening sky, heavy air
darkening below the blue
weight on the limbs
the leaves turned
again the stagnant stillness
waiting for the thunder,
the cracks, the sizzle
steam on the hot pavement
reminders of last year
not so long after the cold,
the snow, the ice
the winter grip
Now it is summer
while yet spring
Thunder
before the plantings
While the crocus and lilacs bloom
