Rain

Rain crackles on the sidewalks As the thunder bellows and roars. Cars hiss by on the wet streets As fallen leaves soar. Lightning flashes in the clouds As the trees dance in the wind. Chills and goosebumps rise on my arms As the cold rain hits my skin. Birds sing in their havens As rivers form in the parking lot. Blades of grass flinch and twitch  As they are pelted by raindrops. Cars sweat and weep buckets As they are left out in the stormy weather. Puddles form in the mud As raindrops splash ripples in them together. The scent of asphalt and rain Fills the cool, humid air As God’s rain calms my restless soul And washes away my despair.

Unwritten Visions

In my mind’s eye

I see the awesome battle

Between the heroine and her foe.

She defeats the villain

With her magical powers

And her magical bow.


In my mind’s eye

I see her again

Walking through an ancient tower

Trying to find the Lost Gem

Of Gorgorem

Which is said to hold great power.


In my mind’s eye

She meets a fairy

Who, with the gem, forges her new weapon

And trains her to shoot arrows with her magical bow

And gives her pyrokinesis lessons.


I see it all so clearly,

Like movie playing before me,

And rush to my computer to write.

But as I type, delete, retype, and delete

The online document remains completely white.


At night, in my bed,

The visions dance in my head

Wonderful scene after wonderful scene.

But the visions in my head

Now give me dread,

For they seem to lack plot and theme.
