    Thunderstorms

    It is a day of remorse and gray skies
    A day of infinite possibilities of grayer skies
    In a near distance thunder rumbles
    Waiting just beyond the furthest rim of the darkest cloud

    Wherever the infinite shore washes up towards which I swim
    It always moves against the unnecessary current of our
    Preoccupations with movements in space our time
    Just as ripples of sun and rain and wind

    Shatter the misty glooms of another voice
    Where a man sits with a sun and a reservoir
    Splaying outward with waters rippling like a vision
    Swooping birds and ducks floating in cloudy mists

    Into prisms of color beyond color beyond the scene
    Of a simple-minded observer whose body is now
    A body without organs riding a sun beam in a memory
    Of arcing patterns just as the thunder recedes

    A very unique poem, enjoyed it very much. Many blessings!

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
