Today i miss the rain

Today i miss the rain. I've forgotten the feel of an attack of disorganized drops against my face. I'm craving the cloud and gloom before the storm. I want to feel the boom of the thunder that shakes muscle from bone. My eyes eager to follow a bolt of lightning from top to bottom before it fades out of site and becomes long forgotten. I would gladly exchange my gloves for a broken umbrella. For now the storm clouds lie frozen just beyond the horizon waiting for spring's thaw. Today i wait for a friend to return. Today i miss the rain.
