The Wind Begun to Rock the Grass

"The Wind begun to rock the Grass
With threatening Tunes and low --
He threw a Menace at the Earth --
A Menace at the Sky.
 
The Birds put up the Bars to Nests --
The Cattle fled to Barns --
There came one drop of Giant Rain"
 
 
Lying in the grass, at the end of a hard day’s work,  the wind whispering while swinging the blades. In the distance, I can see the birds are safely in their bars to nest. A giant rain drop came! And not much followed 😊
