A Storm in Chicago

CRASH! The magnificent waves of beautiful Lake Michigan spilled onto the shore

They wash over the gritty sand that is as white as snow in the heat of winter.

The sky is an angry rhino- charging closer and closer to the towering skyscrapers.

People on the streets take out their umbrellas as the rain starts to patter on the dull sidewalks.

The marvelous malls on Michigan Avenue
start to fill up with people trying to escape the storm that is crying on the streets of Chicago.

For this is the best city in the world,
even when the downpour forces its inhabitants to take shelter.

I wrote this poem to show how amazing the city of Chicago is even though sometimes bad things happen like storms.
