In The Dark Of Night

In the dark of night
City streets wet with rain
Wind swept damp autumn leaves
Drip hour after rainy hour
A street light shines
Illuminating wet circles of yesterday
Footsteps pass in the shadows
Chilly breezes whip about
Until the roaring winds arrive
Slapping against the trees
Forcing them to bend and bow
Their branches gracefully sway
While rain pitter patters away
Until the night sky opens up wide
And the rains pound the earth
The gracefully sweeping branches
Loudly swish through the stormy night

This creates a strong visual.

I really like, "A street light shines Illuminating wet circles of yesterday".
