THUNDER SHOWER by HILDA CONKLING

First Line: THE DARK CLOUD RAGED / GONE WAS THE MORNING LIGHT
Last Line: INTO THE RAIN.
THE dark cloud raged.
Gone was the morning light.
The big drops darted down:
The storm stood tall on the rose-trees:
And the bees that were getting honey
Out of wet roses,
The hiding bees would not come out of the flowers
Into the rain.
