Rain Showers
It's raining again
Here's what I'm going to do
Grab some soap and scrub

Rain
Rain oozed down the windshield.
Like ants, people scampering about
their unexamined lives, dodging raindrops.
The sky and her liquid laugh.
Earth's in charge here,
although some ego's would beg to differ.
Rain is not selective,
it pours down on the lives of everyone,
regardless of your status.
Whenever and wherever it wants.
Leaving puddles of its existence.
So go get wet.
Get soaked.
Feel alive.
The inventor of the umbrella,
never felt free inside.

Flood Warning
the day sacrificed itself to me
shifting in the moment from grey to blue
I hate the grey days
I was sullen inside and needed the sun
an internal storm was building inside of me
it was a flash flood warning
meaning I might cry
I held the feeling tight
shaking it off as it threatened rain
I was stoic not showing anything
but I felt it as an irrational fear
fear of everything and nothing
this world is beautiful but deadly
it hurts this place physically and mentally
to feel happiness is to know pain intimately...

MY FAVORITE RAINBOW COLOR
As the storm rages
and the billows roar
and the wind sings
its own songs;
as promised the storm
passes, the sky starts
to clear, the birds begin
to sing and harvest their meal;
and there, as promised,
is the rainbow with its
amazing hues: yellow, green,
crimson, and blue all perfectly
painted by the hands of nature;
as the sun shines behind the
rare work of art, I am fascinated
by my favorite color, blue...why?
I'll tell you why after the next storm.

Lightning Strikes
and I fall
in[to] grace
like a head
touching pillow
simultaneously
clouds breaking
into rain
this storm too
shall pass
in[to] grace
like a head
touching pillow
simultaneously
clouds breaking
into rain
this storm too
shall pass

primitive spirit
dance with me on a thundercloud
while the skies burst their seams
spin me across lightning bolts
as night spreads her wings
cobalt smudges bearing grudges
stomp the evening pale
leaving their darkened mark
as daylight meekly slips away
as flashes strobe through shadowed patches
touch my upturned face
kiss me
here
in the heart of the tempest
breathing deeply of my rapture
torn between the caution I've always practiced
and throwing myself to the wind
where gales wrap passion around...

waiting for the rain to stop...maybe
the rain
was here,
not here,
it came
tickling in,
leaving
laughter
everywhere,
i waited
inside,
trying
to decide
what i
should do,
i went
out and
jumped around
in the
discussions
the storm
made,
rain drips
down
my head,
my shoulders,
down
my chest,
lingering at
my waistline,
stopping
to gather
their breath,
each drop
made
a race
down
my legs,
...

RAIN
Rain brings ample emotions
Melancholic for some,
Often a wave of notions..
By peasants it is often cherished,
But, the toddler who longs to play
It's departure is deeply wished..
To ones feeling lonely and dejected,
It's the clouds accompanying his sorrow..
For he does not find pleasure or desire
To see the sweetness within the morrow..
Some its a celebration with love,
While others parted by distance
Send messages through as if a dove..
Rain brings ample of emotions,
Excitement and joy for some ...

Ode to Grey Skies
A Sonnet
I write to thee oh beautiful grey skies
Thou has blessed us with plenty of fine rain
Thine sight might be a pain to some sore eyes
Thus I pen this ode but not to complain
Every day thy clouds look a bit scary
Another storm forms filling us with dread
Local news makes us weary and wary
As downpours and floods are surging ahead
So I ask thee oh beautiful grey skies
Please listen to my pleas and humble rhyme
The drawn-out drought has come to a demise
We prayed for rain but not all at the same time
...

Wind Witch
She doesn't need an umbrella
to trace the Wind Witches' route
between flooded crevices of page
They were born of a deluge
their desert emerald quartz
sprouting striped red and purple;
succulent birth of disturbed soil
whose prickly plumage created
sirens in barren wastelands
Mercury rises, his molten heat
fries floral axils to the bone
leaving skeletal thistles bleached
A zephyr snaps immigrant spines ...
