Off In the Distance


rain follows thunder and thunder follows rain

neither are of any concern without the thunder

as thunder brings the lightning and the lightning

brings the danger to all those out and about...

rain falls in droplets sometimes sparse and

sometimes plentiful and sometimes when it rains

we just walk and let it pour down all around us

as if we have not a care in the world...  our clothes

cling to our bodies and our features are on display,

painted by an amateur but painted nonetheless 

and we are a showcase of charms...  low hanging

fruit ready to be picked...  but when we are not

walking for pleasure, it is the rain that is our nemesis

as we do so out of a need...   and, like always it is

welcomed...  co-existing with nature when we have

to or when it is prudent...  the rain falls and off in the

distance we hear thunder and stop what we are doing.
