Bathing in the Storm

When stormy brews in the blue of his eyes
I hear thunder roll through my body and know
rain and lightning approach to bathe me;
ecstasy in my forecast as the clouds build high
along the western edges of my awareness.
My body dampens with the droplets, dew
moist and warm as one front meets the other.
I toss my head back, and so exposed,
offer myself up, no sacrifice, to pleasure.
His tempest cleanses my soul, immersed
in his desire, I am purified from the inside - out.
Generations are born in this passion’s maelstrom.

I love this poem. It’s an awesome metaphor between lovemaking and a storm, a metaphor beautifully spelled out in these verses.

Thank you, Nicole. With the storms we’ve been having (and yes, I’ll leave that ambiguous) it all fell into words for me - glad you like it.
