The Thunderstorm
What is that noise?
softly in the distance it rumbles...
or is someone rolling out a trashcan?
Once again there it is...
well the neighbors do have a lot of trash.
no that definately sounds like...
oh yes, there it is a bump in the air just over in the distance
I think I hear it coming closer...
CRASH!
...A THUNDER CLAP
just like you hear rolling through the valley in the hills of the place I love
but not so much here, kind of unusual for this kind of thunder
what is that tapping? is it getting stronger?
yes, the sky is opening up now...exploding, pouring down...
but where's my thunder? was that a flash?
God I love this! It's quite erotic
I have butterflies in my tummy...
I am aching for more
just another CRASH!
I want it, I need it, Give me what I yearn for
That exhilaration.
no, no, no....
WAIT!
oh man.
it's getting lighter
just drizzling now... just a few taps...
and the rolling... moving away from me now
into the distance
my excitement now waning
Yes, it's very much like sex...
over way to soon
a quickie!
how Disappointing.

Poetry: When it rains
by Alvaro Ramos
When it rains
I feel closer to you
because the color gray
surrounding me, forms small droplets
by the millions, colors my emotion
by Norma Budden
Puddles
When rain falls in heavy torrents
Puddles form along the street.
They come in many shapes and sizes
For so many
When it rains in the spring I close my eyes
a symphony as it plays upon my roof
Waves of showers against the window pane
torrential
Showers in Mexico
Cars on the cobblestone streets
emit gas into the humid air,
as the smell of salt lingers
from the nearby
When it rains the old man thinks
He see's slithers of silver,
Littering his garden path.
His elderly brain turns lightening
