i love how
after a gentle rain
the sun rays poke through
and everything is not dry
but still damp.
i love how
after a gentle rain
the gravel crunches under your feet
but the carpet of grass
wet from dew
is silent.
i love how
after a gentle rain
the water is still and clear.
i sit at the dock
letting my feet dangle over the edge
so my toes rest just above the surface.
i love how
after a gentle rain
the air is sharp and crisp
and it smells
just like a
new morning.
