This was originally written for my friend, D.V. but it works equally well for Lina. Read, enjoy and review.

Born For The Storm

Shae gazed through the glass

At the rain pattering

On the ground.

Her eyes were intent

Searching the charcoal sky.

Suddenly she smiled

Full of satisfaction

Of pleasure

At what she saw.

She touched the handle

Unlatched the glass door

Slid it open

Stepped through.

Her shoulder length hair

Was grabbed by the wind

And blew it behind her.

Dots of wetness

Sprinkled her clothes and hair

She closed her eyes

Enjoying the slap of the wind

The stinging of the rain

The feel of wetness on her skin.

She felt at home in the chaos

In the violence of nature

Surrounding her.

Her temper was as fierce

Sometimes her laugh as sharp

Smile as untamed

Body as primitive and wild.

In short she knew

She had been born for the storm.
