...And
in the distance I heard thunder, felt the dark; then the first, fat
"Ppt." on the pavement. The darkened circle on the ground
heralded the rest, falling, pouncing on the ground in a determined
stampede of heavy drops. I lifted back my head, reached out my arms,
closed my eyes, and breathed deeply. Heavenly, earthy smells of hot
pavement, old earth, and steaming relief of the water surrendered
into a petrichorical symphony playing into the clouds. Oh, the
clouds. Like a pulsing, energetic, fluorescent glow...strength in the
sky; fear, wonder, beauty, all at once, I am in awe, I am in awe.
Light, glowing aquamarine reached through the clouds with evanescent
fingers, and swallowed the sky whole in its glorious light.
I was in it.
With it.
