Lyrilim stood on the grassy knoll under the darkening sky and raised her arms in the wind, reveling in the energy that danced across her skin. Thunder rumbled in the distance and the lightning lancing across the sky gave hints of the storm to come. She took a deep breath of the dampening air and smiled. This was the best part. The "calm before the storm," and then the feeling of rain falling on your skin. She wouldn't stay out in for long, as that was also the best time to curl up and relax just listening to it, but she would linger until wet strands of hair plastered her face and the chill of wet clothes made her shiver. Until then though, this was enough.


     I really like that name. It's an odd combination of letters from my name and my parent's names. Not sure where I saw a meme for it, but it turned out well and I'm alright with it. Kinda of rolls off the tongue as well. Currently it's fairly overcast outside, and if I've very lucky it will rain (preferably pour/storm), which we also really need because the heat/wind have made grass fires run rampant this spring. Usually it's just tornadoes we have to worry about, but northern OK has seen an 85 acre grass fire already I believe. Pretty crazy.
