Rain Lances Roiling Darkness

Stormy Skies

(Inspiration piece)
Rain lances roiling darkness
dawn cannot penetrate;
sleet scours tiles,
savages crannies,
rattles my foundations.
Trapped, penned,
my imagination –
I Wish …
upon a screen.
Grass swathes dance;
billowing hillside pastures sway,
tossed by vicious gusts;
wind-whipped willows promise
secrets;
rushes whisper at the spring;
bloated cumuli sag valiantly
dripping life across piercing heights.
I climb.
Arms raised skyward, yearning.
Are you seeking me, too?
fingers stretch to touch …
mist.
We might both be reaching
for this heaven
but neither grasping it.
