perfection of storm

perfection this night of wind and waves
storm lashed front bashing shores
blackness lit by lightning fresh
its thunder muted in waters crest
tis a night truly to be alive
walking holding against the might
of the ever rising wind
stumbling at times even falling
rains streaming off too soaked skin
laughing at this freedom
till i saw her
at the heart of this storm
all came crashing down
opening a pit
a very hollow
a .....calmness erie in the night
waves settled leaving foam
bruised skies parted
with the heat of full moon
tranquility settled in advance
of an a waited unearthly event
then with all quiet and calm
she stepped from the ocean
coming up out of graceful waves
her dress only of sea foam make
pearl of reflected moon to brightest white
entranced i watched
hair, clothes plastid to face and form
a true parody to the human norm
as upon a flatted space
she began to dance
using only the music of the night
for hours i seemed to sit and watch
her every movement  a melody
carving its way into my deepest heart
till hours, days, mere moments
time as it were without meaning
came to a close and back again did she depart
with her left the peace for this time i had found
night closed back in
the storm came crashing down
now some think it odd
when i buy flowers the color of day
each and every time a storm threatens our way
and why a figure is always seen
above a certain flattened space
when thunder rocks the night
but i have found
she likes
another to join with her
in dance
crazy?
not more than any other i think
do you?
