Summer, tonight I felt you
My body is covered in your embrace
My hair slicked against my skin
My restless body longing for rain
The stars flicker as clouds chase one another
Lightning on the horizon, no thunder
Not yet, but soon
I smell moisture and the earth
I feel the first drop fall
Then the sounds of raindrops marching
Fills the night and I sink into my bed
And listen to the summer sky
Conquer the parched earth.
