first drops of rain
on dusty summer soil
sweet aroma
sweet aroma
dawns upon my senses
dancing to the tune
dancing to the tune
pitter-patter raindrops
I row paper boats
I row paper boats
ah, beauty of this moment
first drops of rain

DeleteYour poem brings fresh rainy day memories, Amrit. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteThe first was of a wet puppy dog smell that I still get a whif of sometimes.
Second was of my 'boats' in the fresh little stream, they were little glass bottles.
