Relief
the storm broke
sweet relief fell from the sky
and the dry earth raised her face to revel in its passing
dusty colours washed sharp
smell of warm damp earth intoxicating
the glory of rain in summer

I love this Claudette. Oh the joy of scents during the rain. Sorry I missed out on Emotography this week. Quotes took up my time 🙂

No problems Ruth, it’s all just for fun, so no pressure to it. I love the smell of rain on the hot dry earth – even the word that describes it is interest (but for the moment I have forgotten it).

Loved the pic, and the poem was so well expressed with lovely words about an everyday event!

Thanks. I really liked the photo, it’s always hard to get a good one of that rose, but the raindrops caught my eye.

Thursday to Thursday. I am supposed to post on a Thursday (but I was late this week), and I put out the Showcase on a Friday for the previous weeks participants.
