Like Lightning – Traces Prompt #8

Summer days and summer sighs

Underneath the dry, hot sun.

My gaze is drawn away

Melting underneath the sky.

Energy infuses my being

Right as you pass by.

 

Lightning flashes across the sky!

Oh! But I love a summer storm!

Voices fill the house with a blackout,

Even though we aren’t alone.

---

I haven’t ever had a summer romance, but I have always loved summer lightning storms even when they caused blackouts.

(Especially when they caused momentary blackouts where we got to use candles around the house because there weren’t enough flashlights.)

It’s actually storming really hard right now.
