Riding in the Rain

riding in the rain
illuminated by lighting flashes,
reverberating in thunder, such
is a summer rainstorm, drenching the
parched ground, we reach our arms up to greet
the torrential rain, water streaming down
gutters, into my shoes, soaking my socks,
pants, through my raincoat to the
blue blouse underneath. 
it's warm this summer afternoon
and cold rain only subdues the heat
two blocks from home.
