After the Rain

The rain falls silently
Only sounding when it hits
The ground and the surroundings
Collecting puddles where it sits

Purity of water as it
Falls now from the sky
Followed by the petrichor
As the pathways start to dry

When and hour or two have passed
It shows in verdant grasses
returning now to lush and green
As the rainstorm gently passes.
