Weather Forecast

the night they met there was
a lot of atmospheric pressure
in which there was a lightning 
storm so bright that the entire 
city lit up as if fireworks 
were on display

thunder rolled in adding to the 
drama of two lonely people
sharing the same table waiting 
for the storm to be over as
they eyed one another and
liked what they saw

the evening was filled with 
electricity from the atmospheric 
pressure which both felt between
them as they drank their lattes
and introduced by fate 
as the storm continued

thirty years later they still remember
the night they met in which the 
storm of the century brought them
together as they sought shelter 
from the atmospheric pressure 
which played cupid
