The Girl Who Loved Storms Miles on down the highway a storm passes another town. I wonder if you thought of me, what thought it was you found. It's gone now but you know how much I love a storm. Once in a while I think of you when the after-rain breeze is warm. It's a different kind of smile that spreads across my face, when I remember fondly the first time and place we were caught in a storm together, lost in each other without a trace. Since then, so many days and nights of rain- often, reminiscing has kept me sane, my remembrances take on many forms- the love for a man who loved the girl who loved storms. ~~~  ~~~ |

I love a storm ~ and I love your writing! I find storms to be exhilarating and cleansing! ~ Mind you, I'm not referring to extreme storms!   Linda |

If he has lost such a one, it's rainy weather wherever he is. This is a completely beautiful poem....there aren't many that go into my library, but this one's heading there....and the poet who created it. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

This made me weep for I, too, am a girl who loves storms. The ions create an excitable mystery. Very poignant - Thank you! |

This seems somehow "dreamlike". I like the "mood" of this poem. Very Good Indeed! Will |

This reminds me of a girl who said to me I could always come to Florida and watch a hurricane with her. Then in my world we call a hurricane, a cyclone. Much like the branding of two brands of fencing wire I use. One is called "Hurricane" and the other is called "Cyclone" Different strokes for different folks, yet a storm is still a storm. a poet who cares |
