Across The Clouds by J. Neff Lind

Across The Clouds

It's raining out
which means that I should write
another poem
about
the gloomy weather
and my gloomy mood.

Instead I dress for summer
in my goggles
and my swimsuit
and shivering
I charge into the storm

I'm karate chopping rain drops
obliterating them with head-butts
body-slamming puddles
and drop kicking gusts of wind.

And when it's clear I've won
and the rain has crowned me king
I jump from drop to falling drop
climbing higher until
I reach the point
Where I can see across the clouds.
