sensory

And just like THAT---

more like a clap than a snap---

the clouds began to pour.

With a beginning of whoosh

and a burst of thick drops;

I heard it before

it began.

And smelled it,

Overwhelmingly.

My closed eyes,

face upturned,

see it best.

I stopped trying

for a taste long ago,

but will accept

a droplet

on my lips.

It feels like glitter

SHOULD feel.
