today  in the  desert 
  the  record-setting
out of the ordinary 
desert   SKY--
came  a  FIERCE--DOWN  POURING
AND  WINDY---RAIN;

the   rains  with  fierce  winds
came  down  hard  and
instantly--DESERT
FLASH--FLOODINGLY
DANGEROUSLY
THE--SAME;




S U D D E N L Y
I SAW  THE  TREES
ROCKING  AND  ROLLING  AND
SWAYING   AND  BENDING   HARD
BRANCH  TO  BRANCH---IN  THE
FIERCE  THUNDERING 
 WINDY  DESERT
B R E E Z E;

IT  RAINED   HARD   AND  THUNDERING
FAST   FURIOUS  AND  STRONGLY
STEADY---FOR   TEN--MINUTES
AT LEAST   BEFORE
THE  RAINS AND THE
FIERCE  WINDS   DID
FINALLY---CEASE
STOP  AND
E A S E;




IN  THE  DESERT  THIS  
RAINY  WINDY  DAY
WILL BE   VERY
WELL--REMEMBERED
FOR---RAIN AND WIND--FALL
RECORD  DESERT   
S U R E;

BY  THE  THUNDERING
CRASHING  BLOWING
HARD  FIERCE  WINDS  AND
DOWN-POURING
CRASHING---INSTANT
F L O O D I N G
RAINS   THAT
OUT OF THE
DESERT BLUE
SKIES   ALL  OF
THE  SUDDEN
DID--JUST
OCCUR;




IN  THE  DESERT  AN  INCH  OF
SOFT--RAINFALL;

IS  USUALLY   WHAT
WE  GET  AND
THATS  IT 
AND--ALL;




BUT  THIS   A M A Z I N G
RAIN-FALL
STORM
TODAY;

IM SURE   WAS  A   RECORD-
DESERT   RAIN-FALL   AND
FIERCE--WINDY   RECORD
IN  EVERY
STORMY
WAY;
