Magnificent Thunderstorm

After dinner, the sky opens.  Lots of incredibly brillant light flashes followed by thunderous claps.  The rain was so heavy that my backyard is flooded.  I was looking out to see the storm and my three boys joined me.  The sky is just grey and pink(due to electrical activity?)  I loved the lightnings.  They are wonders of nature.  The sky lit up with an awesome flash and then it is back to the grey sky again.  Now it is all quiet and peaceful.  The rain is good for my plants.  I just wished I have a way to capture the water for recycling.
