Atmospheric Pressure: The Myth

Written for dVerse Quadrille Monday –
Mything Poems. Our host, De Jackson,
invites us to get mythical …. in 44 words!
Here’s where the prompt took me.

Before time, Silence and Thunder
loved each other across the void.
Their arguments became lightning.
Their reconciliations, rain.
One night they argued so beautifully,
the sky cracked open and stars poured out.
They’ve been fighting and making up ever since.
We call it Weather.
