Lightning strikes nearby.
Deafening cracks of thunder.
Rain as thick as fog….

First a trickle
Then the rain picks up
The drops dance
–
In the wind
With the clouds gradually darkening
Low guttural rumble
–
Distant at first
The storm isn’t here yet
But it’s close
–
I feel it
With all its potential energy
Thunder’s closer now.
–
Heavy rain now
Shrouded world in water’s fog
Hard to see.
–
A bright flash
And deafening crack of thunder
It had arrived
–
All rain gutters
Pour like mad with rainwater
The street floods
–
Small bits of
Everything wash down the avenue
As they meet
–
Their final destination
Down the deep storm drain
To the ocean
–
Wind whips violently
Tree branches snap, falling everywhere
Creating ground forests
–
The rain subsides
The winds die down gradually
The thunder quiets
–
Far brighter sky
Just as the sun reappears
The waters recede
–
I venture out
To clear the broken branches
Into a barrel
–
Clear sky now
Butterflies and birds fly by
Enjoying the warmth…

Dancing together like a single form.
Keeps emotions infinitely warm.
–
Thunder provides a steady beat.
To the rainy overture as dancers meet.
–
A flash of lightning brightens in light.
Providing a strobe for the duet tonight.
–
Dipping a partner in the growing breeze.
Winds wisp violently among the trees.
–
Hold each other in the potent deluge.
The soft inviting arms, a temporary refuge.
–
Kissing deeply in endless sheets of rain.
Serious doubts that either will complain.
–
Soft lips quenched drenched in moist dew.
Quickly stealing an embrace or two.
–
In an increasing maelstrom they twirl around.
Until resting together on dampened ground.
–
Passions increased, no care that it’s wet.
Seeing how much closer they can get.
–
Very dank clothes will get in the way.
Quickly removed as the dancers play.
–
Caressing hair, gently touching faces.
Warms insides, near, and faraway places.
–
Soaked to the bone, the puddles run deep.
Saturate two bodies in intimacy’s keep.
The end of the dance they dress in the rain.
–
Sweet and tender skin almost too much.
Goosebumps appear where their lips touch.
–
Their own fury matches that of the storm.
Now a dance on ground, again single form.
–
In water-logged clothes, none can complain.
–
Last a retreat: dry clothes, cottage, and fire.
A bed warm blanket, the dancers retire.

Dark sky promises
Lightning dances across a sky
Rain will deluge…
