Wrote this one back around 2001. It's the only poem I've ever written that doesn't rhyme. I was walking across campus one Friday afternoon and it was about to rain. Everyone goes home on the weekends so the campus was pretty quiet. These words just popped into my head and it pretty well describes that moment:
Serenity
You know what I love?
The calm before the storm,
When you can smell the rain.
And there's a gentle, cool breeze in the air,
The clouds begin to darken, but not too much,
And for a brief moment, there's a feeling of serenity.
