Rain
I can smell the sulpher
electricity in the air
rain rat-a-tats on my roof
a welcome sound to hear
we sit on the screened porch
as the raindrops trickle down
lightning across the sky
thunder crashes in the clouds
I love this time of year
the monsoons a soothing sound
saguaro drinking in moisture
my plants happy in the ground
it will rain all night
a red dawn will appear
freshness in the morning
when the monsoon has disappeared
