weather

the rain is special
in California
I almost never see it
so when it comes
I enjoy every moment of it
I open all the windows and let
the cold in-
let it envelope me fully
it's in my nose
dampening the cracks in
the sinuses
letting the skin moisten
the sound of it is golden-
driving away the noise
keeping them all inside
where it's warm
but I still let it come for me
the cold
the wet
the smog free air
and I smile at times
like these
because no one else is
