This isn't about saying thanks for the rain. This is about the gratitude I have for the smell of rain. I grew up in the country where you could always smell the rain a'coming. The smell of the dust being layed down. The smell of the freshness of vegetation drinking in the rain. The smell of aliveness in the skys.
I am so fond of the smell of rain. My kids are like..."Yeah Mum, I smell it already..."
Smell the country carried along by water. New rain.
So beautifully written. I am a lover of the rain too, just sitting here today revelling in the dark grey skies and the gentle tap of the rain on the roof.
