The Words are:
blues trills birds fluty branches
ping monsoon chestnut rocks
swallow lungs blends shining

Quavering through the blues
Trills of vibratory bird sounds
Hidden fluty not in view
In branches emitting ping tones

Signals an impending monsoon 
With expected torrential rains
That goads peaceful months
into wet cold nights that sustains

Boughs of strong chestnut
Rocks in heavy roaring winds
To swallow intense strong gusts
in lungs full of guts and pain

As quickly as in the morning
Night transforms into day that blends 
to one so bright and shining
Such is quick weather change

  2. Sure can change on a whim and you never know what will come. All that rain is not something I wish for though, but beats snow anyday
