Mosaics form from fractures
Of the light that stands outside
Vigilant in its duty to chase away the dark
As rain drops cling to the spaces
In the open mesh of screen
Behind which I sit

Wondering if there sits too
In a vestibule another who watches
As the passing front mixes with
Warm moist thoughts to create wet
That trickles thickly down
Breaking light as it goes into Moroccan squares

Reminding me of the way
Spices smell on bared skin and how it is
To find the comfort of colors
Blushed pale when light changes
And the soft brush of silk no longer
Covers the curves shadowed in evening

Such storms, should be enjoyed
With an exposure of the soul to voids
As are left in rainbows and in words that try
To paint the colors upon the warmth of skin
In a flush of some exhaled sigh

Slow-fingered caress of wind
Tracing lines as patterns form
In a rhythm of movement that follows
The natural hollows within

There come low soft moans
To echo against vacant dreams
That rustles leaves in a
                   Sway of limbs
And the rumble deep within the heart
That lightning’s close
       To the thunder that follows

Shaking loose the tiles of rain
Set upon the stillness of clouds
Ever rolling
in a rush towards the dawn

Such hues are born
  On tip of tongue to be brushed upon
              The paler forms

Where shadows play
                    And lust for rain and you
Is born

I still lust for rain, but the sky is dry.  It is so good to see you here today!!

Exactly as it should be.  

You have made my day complete.

and believe me, another does indeed sit.

Thank you for gracing me.

Amazing - this is the way I feel about our weather here as well, but couldn't say it nearly as eloquently   I too, lust for the "smell of it" just even the promise of it, but no dice.

Nice to read you today.

Your desert trips
make me hungry for dates...

and I don't particularly like dates.



Now,let me go pour the sand
out of my slippers,
so I may sit,
and read again.

Capt. Ron, I have never heard the wind, thunder, and lightning
described in such a sensual way before. This is so beautiful, Sir.
It sure is good to read you tonight.
Thank you.
Hugs,
Ethel

this leaves me with the image of the powerful storm moving in....oh how I enjoy the storm through your eyes....
