Drops

[freewrite! WHOOT.]

It's almost impossible to tell
that the rain outside my walls
isn't the crackling in a campfire--
spitting drops of flame
through creaking logs.

But then a night breeze
pulls itself through my window
smelling like wet. and damp. and lakewater,
wind brushing past the pine trees
like it's conducting a symphony of
water droplets.
