Song birds chirping in trees.
There is a soft wind that blows through me,
smells of rain.
Moisture in the air scares the mosquitoes from my ears.
I can see it, hovering over the mountains now.
Thunder starts and the rain sets in,
drifting across the ground it drowns the grass.
The butterflies no longer hop from flower to flower.
I walk into the tree cover.
waiting,
I listen for the sounds of birds to sweeten the sound of rain,
but they are silent.
The leaves pitter and patter, drip and drop.
They begin to shutter in the wind.
Letting the rain water seep into my skin.
The clouds start to roll away,
and the rain with them.
Warming air greets me before the sun peeks.
The bird once again start to sing.
The puddles shine in the dancing shadow of the sun.
I return writing,
I could not wish for better inspiration.
