Could Be Anywhere...

it’s raining again

there’s a storm a brewing
thunder and lightning are dancing
electric humidity in the air

clock battery ran down
disabled hand just twitching
struggling to do it’s job

afternoon almost shadows
hide the room with gray
rainy day type of comfort

old red dog growling
hunching his back on hardwood
unbridled pleasure exhibited

wet sounds from open door
car is sailing up the hill
water indifferent closes behind

semi-stray cat on the porch
accuses me of the wetting
silly cat, i am not God

there is a storm a brewing
thunder and lightning duet
clean freshness in the air

I always enjoy your poetry Tramp Poet.  I was amused by your reference to the cat.  I know the feeling.  They hold us responsible for every evil and give us no credit for the good things we do for them.  Joyce
