THE DROUGHT IS OVER

 

Dry and dusty

A drought had set in

 

He longed for the passion that had been missing for years

His heart so full of love and fears

 

The leaves were wilted,

The grass was crisp,

The land

Cried out for that precious drink

 

He wondered if he would ever love again

Society's baggage chipping his shoulder

Life was passing him by

 

Refusing to accept the Barbie doll way,

Wham, bam, see ya, appeared cold and gray.

Threesomes, foursomes, were fine for some,

The greatest yearning was for one on one

 

And finally a glimmer

On that stormy afternoon

As the skies darkened preparing to rain

A sacred vixen would remove his pain

 

Taking that first step

On that rainy day

into a world of love, respect

That he had hoped for someday

 

They met as old friends

That had never seen the other

Yet so familiar, as their eyes met

Touching, hugging, kissing

 

Her smile lit up the world,

Much less the room

And those eyes, oh, those eyes,

a peaceful feeling set in upon him

 

The earth's cries had been heard

The rains had set in on that magical afternoon

Coincidence is only a word

 

The rain should have created traffic

Instead it removed all obstacles

There was nothing to get in their way

 

For what seemed an eternity,

Yet only moments in time

They danced with conversation

Probing each other's minds, teasingly, provocatively

 

The rain outside was cool to the touch,

Fresh to the face,

cleansing and rejuvenating

 

They stole away to their destined union

The passion that had been tucked away, dusty and lonesome

Came rushing out

With every breath

 

The clouds let loose,

Thunder and lightning were increasing

The rain pelted on the very window

Shielding them inside

 

They couldn't wait for their skins to touch

Textures so different, yet so compatible

Hurried but patient

They found each other in that rainstorm

 

As the rain became louder,

They explored and caressed

Afraid of missing something,

He concentrated on the beauty that lay before him

 

They played, touched, kissed, and moaned

He was a kid in a candy store

Wishing the moment would never end

She was a beautiful rainstorm cleansing his soul

 

He explored her beauty, teasing, touching

Only wishing for her the inner peacefulness

And sensuous passion that most dream of

 

The thunder rolled again and again,

As he buried himself in her sweetness

He knew this precious moment would soon end

It did not matter, they were in sync

 

They lay together as the rain lessened

Touching each other softly, slowly, yes

Then again the rain quickened

 

Faster this time

As their bodies were familiar

The thunder boomed, they melted together

In a quivering union that left him dazed and confused

 

It was time to part company,

Knowing they would meet again.

In the meantime they would share feelings

That this vision of complete beauty had stirred

Yes, deep sensual inner feelings, that had almost been forgotten

 

Why would someone share such secrets with a stranger?

Because they never were and never will be strangers.

This beautiful divine creature loves all,

And those who have the honor and highest privilege

Of knowing her

Will come away a better person

 

So on that rainy afternoon,

upon leaving his again found friend,

the earth outside never looked so clean and clear,

the rains had stopped again.

The grass was greener than he last saw it

 

The drought was over

The earth was refreshed

Their souls had touched each other

On that beautiful rainy afternoon,

All was right with the world
