Flirting Thunder


                                                       
The Thunder flirts,
sending out promises
from the grey sky                                                  
I am coming, love

and sends raindrops
gentle as soft kisses
on the earth’s dry lips
yearning, eager, for
the caress promise
 – but alas,

Thunder is a fickle fellow
too soon he is off
seeking another love,
another pair of lips
to tease with promises
of rain
and we are left
dry-lipped
and yearning
for more
