Array ( [sid] => 62435 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Rain [time] => 2004-09-03 15:22:40 [hometext] => [bodytext] => RAIN

The air smells so sweet, so fresh;
It's so crisp my nose tingles.
There's a slight breeze
Brushing my face -
It's going to rain;
Inside I jump for glee.
It starts now,
A single drop splashes
Upon my forehead and rolls;
Then another, and another.
My senses awaken.
It comes more steadily now,
But I don't take shelter.
I stand there - in the rain,
Not minding that I am wet.
I love the rain, it enlivens me.
A simple pleasure to watch
Raindrops splash on the ground,
Individual but together.
A small puddle forms;
I can see my reflection,
And I smile.
The sound of falling rain
Pleases my ear.
There's nothing quite like it.
Sometimes it befriends
Thunder and lightening.
I am struck with awe and wonder
So beautiful, the sky,
Picture perfect with a rainbow.
I am drenched now,
But I don't mind,
Because I love the rain.
So sweet,
So fresh,
So crisp,
Delightful,
Rain. [comments] => 2 [counter] => 164 [topic] => 27 [informant] => poetmarie [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => NaturePoetry )

For most people, rain makes them sad. This takes rain to a completely new level ;) I must agree with you, I love the rain as well.
Fantastic write.
