Don't know where this came from ... and so, I write.

Poem Artwork


Come.  Come with me to the birthplace
of lightning and thunder, twins held in check
by forces beyond their control.  They will not
emerge until conditions are exactly right - the first,
a bolt of energy pushes its way out, flying 'cross the
room; the second, darker one arrives with a voice that
threatens the walls surrounding it.  And always, always, the
rain - the tears of a mother mourning the loss of her children...

(c) 2007, Karla Dorman (12/26)

Lightening and thunder reminds me od rambunctious children playing tricks on one another.
Come to Tampa, the lightning Capitol of the World. We're in the drought part of the season right now so it's rather quiet.

Love and blessings,
Susan

The rain has a calming effect upon me...thunder and lightning awaken my senses...and then I become one with the electricity in the air. Beautiful images you present, Karla

What lovely imagery. Perhaps because I am a twin I can relate so well to your poem.
Thank you.

This one has a dark, depressive feel to it; one feels the mother's pain as she grieves for her twins. Excellent, foreboding write; brava!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your twink, Karen Lynn. :(

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
