Storm's of Memory

i felt the tempest coming onslaught umbrage from darkest skies its thunder rumbled in endless echoes across the grains of mountain's rock i saw it flash its arrant light piercing through the tips of trees emanating crimson trails upon the ground i stood in its pools of blood as if assailed in its draft its winded breath piercing through my heart like wounded love i saw you there momentarily blinking in and out of the shadows of memories

Ditto to Cay Cay...so there you have it Queen of free verse now that's the kind of reign I don't mind (catch the wordplay?)

ha, i did catch the word play and adore you comment, it was a bright spot on this gloomy day for sure... the rain made for a longer day for me ...and nothing to look at but gray skies, puddles, and fogged windows... Thank you John, love your comment :) hugs

Seems that dreary day is still hovering over your part of the world. Sad my friend but once again, beautifully expressed and amazing imagery. Your words reach out and touch the reader, we can feel these emotions.

Thank you my friend. Still a dreary day but I had some sunshine in it. Second day this week the person in front of me bought my coffee at my favorite Coffee spot. Always cool when others are kind :) hugs

YOU are the QUEEN of free verse imagery. I love the thrill I feel each time I'm impressed while reading you - no pressure there, huh? You keep raising your impact level to new highs that delight me. You are now on top of me on the 100 Contest Winners list, we two BD girls. I got my new # today, you? (I forgot) LOVE this poem. (oh, I watched my Dad make his transition so I know and hold the feel that never leaves) You're awesome, Sandra. Poetry hugs ... CayCay
