Oh So Sick...

A nasty cold virus has seized my body, leaving me in bed to battle post nasal drip along with coughing and sneezing.

I hope you are all well.

Will return when I am able.

Thanks/

RAIN...

Watching the sky slowly stew before graying 

I felt 

Before seeing,

tiny droplets pelt

the surface of my shoulders.

First shy, then insistent,

a lover's fingers

brushing, then caressing skin,

drawing a surprised breath

at the mysteries of full embrace.
