I miss the rainstorms
Of the summer
A feeling that cannot be
Replaced with any other sound
Than that of the thunder

A far and distant
Threat
That cannot reach me
No it cannot harm me

The rain heals me
All the pain and
All the worry
Floats away

All the sounds
Since I can remember
The hollers and the chatters
Overwhelmed me
As a child

Convinced me
The Gods were calling
A secret message

And my longing for the
Summer comes from the
Hope to uncover
And answer back

I'm tired of listening
With such intense joy
I want to speak
With the same power


------
"If you get a feeling next time you see me
Do me a favor and let me know
'Cos it's hard to tell
It's hard to say
Oh well, okay"
Elliott Smith

Hollers and Chatters
Another good poem from icicle. Love your style. I like the way you say things, such as...

"I'm tired of listening
With such intense joy
I want to speak
With the same power"

Thunderstorms, I love them too, one of the great pleasures of life. Don't know everything, of course, that you are saying here, but you just say it so well. Robert.
