He strikes a match

Smoke filling the air once again

His pen fills the page yet again

The rain that once doused his fire

Has gone away

The gray clouds

Were not there to stay


The author's comments:

This piece uses a metaphor of a match being lit once again, in the same sense that a pen is being clicked. The match in the poem is a pen in actuality, it's merely an analogy.
