two elfchens

Refreshing

thunderstorms

bring precipitation

to the city

speckling sidewalks with raindrops

refreshing

urbanity

reset from

thunderous bustling streets

as people duck inside

transformed

Amber

Amber

Amber

stays mellow

in its hue

even as its sheen glistens

brightly.

Sleep

Sleep

brings peace

in the night,

but it often remains
