Powerful Storm

Drenching rains, no shape nor form
Howling winds, skies midnight black
Lightning striking, a powerful storm
Our little haven, now under attack

Plans for our moonlit stroll are dashed
No lights, no music, just you and me
Squeezing me tighter with every flash
Letting our two longing hearts be free

Waiting out the storm, we cuddle by the fire
Enjoying the crackling embers until it's done 
Soft touches, slow kisses, both showing desire
Two kindred spirits, coming together as one

The imagery is great Tim! The weather's gone wacko here... in the 20s for about a week and now they're predicting close to 60 tomorrow!

Now that's the way to ride a storm out!! I like the play of crackling embers -- both from the wood burning and the souls connecting. nicely crafted my friend. I'm off to check the weather report -- hoping for a storm!
