waves of wind
replace the rain
pouring for days now
flooded friends
not so lucky
populate all online
i close my eyes
sound surrounds
surges
and falls like
rolling ocean
sudden…
sharp and random
Snap! Crack!
i can no longer concentrate
relax… watch tv
the curtains billow up
partially covering my computer screen
Crack! …
again Crack! Crack!
Snap!
unlikely that any given tree
would fall on a power line
or the house
i think of my sleeping sweetheart
far from this island jungle
a dream makes her smile
my heart heals
with the returning rain
——
Blessed…
