Clouds drift in from shores so far
Heat collects like balled energy beneath the cover
He stands alone at the bar
Sips bitter water, yearns for a lover
Music rocks the floor, people talk
Too much noise, time to walk

Oppressive air, no flow
A rumble, a thunderclap
Nowhere to go
Lightning sets the night ablaze

The storm rolls in on winds unbound
Rain falls, driven, drop by drop
Steam rises from cooling ground
He walks ~ nowhere to stop ~
His spirits brighter ~
And walks, his steps lighter and lighter...




...

You may substitute "She" for "He"...it matters little.

Hi Regina, I loved the mood that this poem evokes - made me recall those smoky days of semi-ruin. RD

The rain always cheers me up too! Nothing like a good walk in the rain. Sometimes people are too much at times and you painted that beautifully. Gregg
