For the Tinder match who gave me five random words and asked for a poem using them

June 21, 2016 Nick Simmonds

At the horizon, you can see the thunder
You can’t hear it this far but you know it’s there
Beneath the dark clouds but here,
in the quiet, I’m leaving careful tracks on the clover
To be erased when the silver sheets get here
Get hear, when you can hear the thunder
I’ll be gone then
And the tracks will
But the clover won’t
