Spring Rain

The air is thick and sweet with the promise of spring rain, and a slight breeze nips at a lock of my hair, coaxing it out of its neat bun. The cool prickle of raindrops on my skin is familiar, and I watch as the droplets on my arm get caught in a maze of hair follicles before slipping off toward the ground beneath me.
