Snapshot Poem

Another soggy day, 
air thickly inhabited
with portents

of coming change.
There, at the edge
of the visual field,

the far distance
of the audible wave,
a motion, a whisper

just caught 
by diminishing senses.
A touch at the earlobe,

a flicker on the eyelash.
I brush it away
with my fingertip.
