Lightening flashes,
Thunder roars,
Ride the storm,
Left to soar.
Sparkles dance,
Along my skin,
Embrace the storm,
Ride the wind.
Wonder rises,
With each new flash,
Rain begins,
Cools my skin at last.
Laughing and free,
This is why I was born,
Raised from thunder,
A child of storm.

Makes me want to look up to the sky and watch the rain come down. There's nothing on earth like feeling alive in the moment.
Hell yea. -
wow, I like the feel of this, nothing quite like a good storm to recharge a person or their muse. Well done.

Can't resist a woman with that wild, untamed spirit. Might be why I love to read yours. They end up inspiring me to write more of my own, too.
Awesome work, m'lady.
