*The Rain
*The Rain
Have you ever walked outside
You know that smell so well
That aroma that seems to fill your mind
Before the rain has fell
You look all around
Searching in the sky
You feel the sprinkles
Start to kiss your face
As you gently close your eyes
Like a child...
Your mind twirls in gladness
With your hands held out
You feel no sadness
Catching the clearness of the cleansing drops
As they steadily soak to the ground
Oh yes, I love the scent of rain
It smells so crisp and clean
How it seems to add much color
To all of Gods' precious things
As bluish gray clouds dance above
Delicately rinsing all anew
Then as quickly as the rain did fall
It suddenly was through
As you look up across the skies
So amazed at what's in sight
If it were not for the rain
These colors we might not know
A promise from the Heavens above
In the beauty of the rainbow
