Rain Soaked Earth

It rained
Before I could believe
Drops soaked me so
I forgot the smell of earth!
Life, you are burdened!
With this unearthly pain and fear
So much so
I forgot, almost forgot
The smell of rain soaked earth!
Give me a bit of sunshine
a bit more rain drops!
Oh! GOD

I am left wondering if this is metaphoric or if it is real life. So many flooded areas this year in the US. I feel for the people who have suffered from the devastation. I hope if this is a real situation that you are in a better place now. Sara
