Last Saturday at the Angaston Farmers' Market
a great storm arose
do enlarge for a fuller effect
the light changed
and multi-coloured clouds with pink and green in them
gathered in the space of a few minutes
they darkened and started turning into horizontal ropes
then a mixture of rain and hail bucketed down
as lightning flashed vertically and
horizontally at the same time
driving was a bit hair-raising and at a snail's pace
but we got home safely none the less.

Very scary looking stormy driving conditions, but gosh even your stormy days are beautiful. Not like gray winter rains in Oregon. Just gray, no interest.
