Into the distance I seen the lightening flash - 

I heard the clouds collide with a powerful clash. 

The winds whipped around me in a mighty roar - 

And I stood there naked at the storms front door. 

~ ~ ~ 

I felt the intensity of the storm move my way - 

The thickness in the air after a hot, sultry day. 

Moisture surrounded my body without a strain - 

I stretched out my arms and welcomed the rain. 

~ ~ ~ 

The hot rain fell on my naked body in a shower - 

I felt myself slip into the storms strong power. 

I stood there as the winds caressed my skin - 

I felt the power of passions rise in me again. 

~ ~ ~ 

My skin tingled with the lightening's vivid flashes - 

And insides roared with the thunderous clashes. 

Then I trembled beneath the storms great power - 

Slowly I conceeded to this most passionate hour. 

~ ~ ~ 

The storm bore down on me with all its might - 

Giving me its gift of pleasure that dark wet night. 

I felt the strong winds gradually begin to subside - 

Now, down to its finish was this electrifying ride. 

~ ~ ~ 

My hair hung heavy - wet in my moistured face - 

I took my hand - pushed it back to give it grace - 

I could taste the dripping rain upon my wet mouth - 

My open eyes watched as the storm move south. 

~ ~ ~ 

And there into the distance I seen lightening flash - 

I could barely hear the soft rumbles of thunder clash. 

And I wondered as I could hear the winds gently roar - 

Who was standing naked at the storm's front door.
