The Thunder My muse is starting to wonder…. Of desert moons, And the sounds of distant thunder. Is it the waking of the soul? When the colour of your eyes Is freedom like a winding country road I’ve whispered them in sleep, Names of lovers once dear in heart But it seems today, yours is all I want to speak. I’ve come to understand my gift This pen is closely connected to my soul It lives and breathes inside the lover’s wish. I hear the rain in distant lands The thunder, slowly wakes my soul In you my heart with gentle reaching hands. The thunder, yes the thunder.
