First Rain

The earth bursts into a joyful song,
Like wet tongues on parched lips
When th first drops touch soil,
As it quenched its thirst after a long summer spell.

With open arms earth embraces heaven's tears
Eager to welcome the new season,
Like the traveller who yearns
a refreshing bath to cleanse the soul
after a long, long journey

Ah, the beauty of first rain.
