After the Rain

It`s been raining all afternoon

grey skies looming overhead

watering all the amazing plants

waking the flowers from their bed

after rain, there`s peace that`s felt

stillness and silence all around

along with a smell that`s so unique 

raindrops seeping into the ground

see a drop of water settled on a leaf

creating an intricated feature

 reflecting details of each plant

sharing amazing beauty of nature
