Waves unfurled like the backs of whales
Rolling in a tempestuous sea
With cresting foam like the heads of sails
Straining to break away free

The clouds bow down to touch the waves
The waves ****** high above
The wind whips up a howling dance
As sea and sky make love

I have read this poem publicly on several occasions, but this is the first time it appears in print.
George Cheese Oct 2014
My spirit soars in the squall,
tempestuous wind howling my body away,
a frenetic ire known only to me, all-consuming.

Then comes peace, bluster departing.
I spin silently through troposphere,
feeling the sudden gravity as I plunge.
storms and all that. can't get enough of storm metaphors in my writing. thought i might as well go the whole hog.

— The End —
