PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

You struck me like lightning.

You rend my life in two

Into before and after

I met you.

You warm me by candle light.

You fill me with the slow

radiating glow

of embers.

As if I stumbled in the night

Into a large orange grove

Full of blooms

My favorite scent.

And here I am

At night

Deep in a forest of orange blossoms

Lit by flickering light

In the perfect place and time

Caressed by Fate and the luck

Of your lightning strike.
