This envelope is empty,
the words gone
like a windblown leaf.
It shouldn't matter,
just words you know,
but now the words are gone.

It's going to rain tonight.
A lot of rain.
Tornadoes,
flash floods,
trees down,
torrents of rain.

I can barely wait.
I don't cry.
I won't.
But in the rain,
when I go scream yet again,
who will really know?

Thought Provoking

Poems, in my opinion, should always prompt an emotional or questioning response. Your poem did both for me ... thank you.

Welcome back! It's a special treat to read a new Boo poem, rather than having to unearth one from Lit's archives.
