July Rain 1
hot, dry season over and done
nostalgia approaches in a dance of delight
dust and droplets of rain
start their tango creating an essence
known as petrichor.
inhale her deeply, memorize her smell
for she departs without sight or sound
welcome rain
cleansing the impoverished ground,
leaving behind her cool, fragrant spirit,
precipitating stark remembrance
as she hugs the dust of earth
relieving its thirst
