Later

You once were a cloudburst -
no commas or breath.
Your professions of love
left me wrung out, but wet.
Now your Sappho is silenced
and the best that I get
is a peck
on the cheek -
Love ya, later.

Sometimes a pause for healing is imperative.

Well, at least there is still the "Love ya". Smiles.

Try a rain dance.

Good poem.

Shay's comment made me laugh. I'm sure a rain dance would work.
