Living by Lightning

Stinging droplets of rain strike
Bare, sweaty skin
Beading on the rigid peaks of her nipples
Dripping down his thighs

Rich damp earth mingles with
Elusive, sweet ozone
Hips rolling with each thunderclap
Driving him deep into her body

Lightning flashes in jagged bolts
Threatening, seductive light
Revealing glimpses of bodies entwined
To greedy hands and eyes

Wind races through bent trees
High, keening wail
Caressing her body as she rocks above him
Fluttering intimate touches to thrill them both

Movements become frantic as the storm peaks
Overwhelming, frightening power
Her head thrown back in search for pleasure
His hands brusing her supple thighs

Liquid orgasmic ripples move through
Wet, writhing bodies
Cries of exulation lost in
Guttural roars of thunder

Sated they fall to the ground
Panting, gasping breath
Shuddering through shared aftershocks
Souls set free to ride the storm
