My Lover Thee Tempest

This to me is about storms and how I love them and make me happy, but it can be taken a variety of ways I suppose.

The children run and hide

But I lean into your embrace.

You, my love, match my inside

And together we shall dance with grace.

Some hear you as a monstrous howl,

I hear you as you sing the lovely songs.

All the others illustrate you so foul,

But I see none of those wrongs.

"Cold" they scream 

And hide behind their prejudice,

My heart knows the truth, matching your theme.

We shall name them thee cowardice.

Soaking the world you do,

And many sport protection.

But i felt as if you cried my tears that are long overdue,

Guess it depends on perception.

In my city you rarely visit,

Maybe one day I will move nearer you.

Dear, you are quite exquisite,

I love you and your every hue.

Author's Note

This is really beautiful. It reads nice.

The line that really got me was "But i felt as if you cried my tears that are long overdue,". Overall, I thought this was a great poem :)

[Lexi]

Thank you! And that was my favorite line haha :)

I did not connect hte title to the imagery until toward the end of the poem, but I love the mixture of romantic love and nature: an interweaving of genres almost.

[Lexi]

In your opinion should I have conveyed that I was talking about a storm earlier in the poem?

[Zany]

No, it just occured to me later. not necessarily a bad thing: I prefer subtlety generally.
