racing clouds

The sky appears overcast and gray. Another stormy arrival is imminent. The trees are quietly shuddering in anticipation, and the insects have quieted, out of respect for Mother Nature's forces. Lawns appear green beneath the gray, greedily awaiting their thirst-quenching drink.

Look closer at the sky. It is not a quiet gray. It is moving, mobile, clouds are racing east to west. It is not a heavy gray; there is instead a constantly evolving texture to the cloud cover not visible at first glance.

Busy, hectic, churning, drawing.

A police car drives by. Maintaining order?

Nothing is at it first appears.

  4. "Nothing is as it first appears"

    That describes our storms here - the build up is bigger than the actual storm!!

    Loved this post - you can feel the storm coming!

  6. And hasn't it been beautiful... the lead up, the light, very feminin rain yesterday, and the hope for more today.

    Beautiful
