Waiting
by Reverend Mia Backus
Age Group: Adult
Leaf drenched branch
slapping window,
“S-h-h-h-h…” Sister Wind whispers.
Lighter Dancers tattoo patterns.
Humid shiver hovers
between warm and cool
awaiting the first rain drop,
or rumble of the storm to come.
I sit listening, legs folded.
Three Siamese cats keep watch,
Four Decades behind me.
Savor the air.
Envision a time
when I am only this.
Ambition brought no comfort.
“RAT-a-tat-TAT!” I startle.
The branch is, “slap-SLAP-slapping, ”
flash of light.
The storm begins.
Author's Notes: A moment in time... ...of me, in my world.
