scent of rain



The scent of rain, refreshing and sweet
A fragrance that fills the air beneath our feet
The pitter-patter of drops, a soothing lullaby
Inviting us to pause, to breathe, and to sigh.

The earth awakens, from its long dormant spell
A rush of life, as if from a magical well
Nature calls out, with a rejuvenated voice
As she wears a cloak of freshness, to rejoice.

The air swirls with mist, and a subtle mist
A delightful aura, that can't be missed
The scent of wet soil, and blooming petals
A feast for the senses, it's the best kind of ritual.

The rain has a power, to spark a rebirth
To cleanse our souls, and clear the earth
It's a reminder to embrace the changes of life
To let go of the old and welcome the new, without strife.

As the rain paints a scene, of beauty and grace
And washes away, every sign of decay and disgrace
The smell of rain evokes, a sense of wonder and awe
A spectacle of nature, that leaves us in awe.

So cherish every drop, of this heavenly dew
And let it wash away, all that needs to be anew
For the scent of rain, is not just a fragrance divine
It's a reminder, that every end, is a new beginning in line.
