The Next Storm



the strength of nature’s surprise comes with
heaven's breath blown over a lover's shoulders –
dirt-worthy metaphors crawling up exhaustion's neck,
and I just lie here waiting for the next storm to bring you back...

    It never ceases to amaze me how sensual and romantic nature can be....

    "heaven's breath blown over a lover's shoulders"...
    that, my friend, is beautiful.

    "heaven's breath blown over a lover's shoulder's" very sweet , passionate feel to this. Only a wordsmith can fashion this intricate labyrinth of words. Tecohe

  • "dirt-worthy metaphors" is a great line!

    • it appears to be the straightest line between breath and exhaustion.

    nature is the best metaphor for life, for love...that is why we always return to nature, to the nature of love. I liked this, not only because i love stormy weather, but for the gentle breeze blowing off this page.

    Born of a simpler Ashcockian moment? For the sake of bearing my ignorance to the masses, what, pray tell is that?

    Ignorance aside, I like the way this flows and the images it inspires even in all of its brevity.
