Prelude to a rainstorm

Like a deserted island, the gallery stands barren.
As outside clouds pack together to create a watery curtain.

Loudly flapping marquees and flags, mark the coming of stormwinds.
As do swaying cyclists and girls with ruffled hair.

A tiny dog shivers, and seeks refuge behind its owners legs.
While its hair blows in the wind, as were it skydiving from a plane.

Above it, the clouds form a dark pack in the once blue sky.
Minute drops start their long journey towards the ground.
Splashing down at irregular intervals.

Umbrellas are no match for what's to come....

Beautiful!

If all weather reports were delivered like this, we wouldn't mind the rain so much.

Of this I'm certain :)
