Petrichor

 The storm lashed through my city today. 

The heat of the moment, building up 

Between the Earth and Sky, lovelorn. 

It poured as though the Sky was in a hurry 

To meet the Earth in petrichor 

Thirsty, lashing through the scopes. 

In a loud, rebellious protest 

The storm marched along the concrete streets 

Like a knight invading a city 

Claiming what is his.

Does the storm take a port of the 

Earth with him to the Sky?

Does the Sky wash away her pain? 

Wanderer as the heart is, never fixed to a place, 

Why does she then wait for him this way?
