Ballet In the Sky

The whole air is dancing- Ravenous thunder rumbles Lighting curls her jagged bolts flashing like gold through amythyst, sapphire skies I'll not allow your image to spoil my view With you-rain would cry it's droplets as it mumbled whispers to my haunted heart Oft' times-rolling clouds rumbled their voices in my soul *~* Now, I dance in scarlet flames that spark across the heavens gliding thru turquoise skies with copious clouds... that delicately clothe my body pirouetting gracefully ... to the peaceful harmonic rhythm of rolling thunder My flesh no longer aches for your barren touch I shall not desire your hand opon my beautiful rain drenched skin whetted now with golden silken tears My memory quickens... I no longer remember your face or hunger for your sterile love I'll not dance to your chaotic rhythm Nature baited me with her sweet breath Embraced me in her loving arms- singing her gentle rain of tears You... baited me with your hook of selfish love My heart now dances with another One who bathes my soul in fertile soil He feeds me with his hungry, selfless love... You... fed me worms with your stingy heart

Haunting and beautiful Anne, I do enjoy your lovely rhyme. A story told that many have experienced and you tell it so well.

Dark and deep. A sad but very poetic write.
