Thunder storms on a Tuesday



did you pray for rain old woman?

opening your bosom to the greying skies
a flash of white
bright vivid sky

the line of water follows
every curve and crevice

what is age
inside this smallness that begs
to the fingered parts

a roar comes
after the claps across the road

    vivid

    got caught in the rain
    soaked, whata pain
    take an umbrella next time
    avoid doing the same
