A Wet October Night
The night rain bangs against my window
seeking entry being wind-blown flat.
Lightning flashing through the slats.
I sit imagining, who was that?
As thunder thrills the window panes
I then dream, where is she now?
Is she somewhere doing that?
Once upon a cold December eve
with snow rising higher and higher
and her photos sizzling in the fire
the acrid climax of our desire
I wondered then how she’d go away
and dreamt that she had found
a lonely lover keen to drive her.
Now upon this wet October night
I am spent of all aspirations.
Knowing well my limitations
I cannot answer her invitations.
Though I slept with her kinky cravings
and felt her hidden dark-side passions
I must proclaim my emancipation.

OOooh is the She who must be obeyed whatever the weather - - an eerie first read of my day makes me look twice through the rain lashing my windowpanes to see who is weaving webs here - great atmospherics in this piece of well rhymed whimsey Phil.
A poem of emancipation from a devilish lure. I thank you for taking the time to comment Maybe your rain was the same rain that inspired this Small world.
you have no idea how close I came to vowing never again when I saw your title ...
I could see it was raining (an understatement) but it was .. or appeared to be broad daylight ...
For a moment or two I thought I had lost a couple of months ...
this is really something Phil .. and it is such a relief to know I'm not the only one with kinky cravings .....

I think I've written too many poems about or including rain. It's a wonder I've not drowned. If what you say is true, I've got a short story I wrote for Halloween that you may enjoy. Thanks for reading my stuff.
nowt but a pleasure Phil and all mine .... let me have it sir .. I will gladly check it out ...
