Melting in my kitchen…
I watch
I listen
to the rain
as it falls from sky to earth
creating songs
only gods can sing
I am one with them today
tapping my feet
dancing to the beat
can we hear some thunder
oh, thank you, Zora
rolling across clouds
as lightening
cracks the sky
these parched lands
soak them into bliss
balance the earth with your kiss
stream the streets clean so they gleam
make a paradise lost
come alive again
alas, this is a story
based on my imagination
for its summer
and hot as hell
the ice cubes
are melting in my kitchen
summer calls
for laziness
and easy living
watching the breeze
as it plays in the trees
I’m skipping ahead
to my favorite season
when I met you in the wind?
let’s remember that time,
move into a conditioned room
say it soft and sweet
take it nice and easy
don’t over work
in this summer heat
a bottle of water will do
drink it down
soothe your mind
run through sprinklers
Summer’s here

You’re welcome! It’s very freeing when the writing flows and you don’t have to think consciously about it. I would love to read more of your experiments!

Joy your comment brings Joy! and inspires me to write more freeverse–something I rarely do anymore. Melting was done with automatic writing or subconscious writing–I’m not sure of the definition of this style?? I will experiment more! I appreciate your poetry Joy.Thank you.
