The sky creaks as if it were a warning, the way a door’s hinges cry out for lack of oil. Clouds bulge and darken, whispering threats of their intent to burst. Slowly, the graying masses enfold the fading sun, suffocating the last glimpse of light. Silence submerges still air as the earth inhales and pauses. Time stops for a second, and then, as if it were rushing to resume its natural pace, races forward with the exhale. Water consumes the focus, blurring vision and soaking all not under cover in a coat of slick moisture. Droplets pelt the ground with the small pattering of tiny footsteps. Wind picks up speed, whipping the rain in a frenzy of directions. Whirlwinds of wetness strike at anything tangible. Then, slowly, the storm abates and realization is reached. Simply an evening shower. Bad weather must always pass.
Beautiful pictures and I love the vivid descriptions!
Hope you’re all right x

Yes, I made this blog to kind of test how my writing faired in the public eye and to motivate me to write more so this is like my first step. I don’t do much with social media so if those goes well I’ll consider trying out other sites, but right now this is enough!

Thanks! My computer keeps crashing unfortunately so I haven’t been on WordPress much π I’m hoping it will get fixed soon! It’s hard to do everything with the phone app.

This is true – I can do some basic posting in a pinch, but it’s not very much fun. And it takes forever!
