You were lightning
i became the rain
i trembled
in the clouds collapse
then wept in your mist
when you left me lonely

you were lightning
i became the rain
you captured me
in the storm
but remarried your sky
and now douse me
with silence.

Michele, I must reiterate what I have written in past replies, your use of nature metaphors really knocks my wings off! It really intensifies my appreciation of your emotes!

Sending you a warm hug of comfort ~ and of appreciation for your talent!

....sigh....so it goes.....

                 "...Know what you know of air masses
                    and the jetstreams, you cannot stay
                    or turn its course. The storm will be.
And when the lightning strikes,
it is not enough to know why."

Michelle,
You are an artist with words, and the thunder clapped hard in your final verse.
Hugs Sweetie.

I enjoy you deeply, dear Michele!

Lightning is powerful, but in the same time it is an ephemeral phenomenon!

Love and hugs.

Wonderful!

These are my favorite lines:

"then wept in your mist
when you left me lonely"

perfectly said.

"too bad ignorance isn't painful"
