MARTIN AND VENETIA
27 June 2011

Thunder called,
lightning compelled,
and
destined to be drawn
but never collide,
they were
mostly
too far to melt,
too near for safety.

Caught in the middle of should I, or shouldn't I.  hmmm everyone has been there.
I wonder what happened after the storm passed?

Well, Ford, the storm only abates for a short while and then the safety is gone and there is a melting of both Martin and Venetia, but then the storm starts up again and they are again repeatedly drawn together then flung apart.

Duck and cover if they ever do get close to each other.  It's going to be a life-changing event.  I really like this, Diana, and am enjoying the poetry that you are sharing.  You are very good.
