Calm
© N Noël Nov 2010
I love the smell of rain
On a grey and misty afternoon
Washing down sidewalks and windows
Perfumed air full of petals sweetness
Sticks to your nostrils like life
Awakening the senses locked away
I love the smell of rain
Washing away worries and troubles
Escaping down the gutters of streets
Makes everything clean
From the Soul right down to the feet
Filling the lungs with calm
Closed eyes brings scenes
Forgotten from childhood
Lost lovers and friends
Glistening wet, taste it on your tongue
The mystery hastened
By the raindrops beating like drums
Clean, Calm, Easy, Fresh
I love the smell of rain
Like my tears
Washing everything clean
I love the smell of rain
Puts my heart at ease
Calm, Easy, Fresh, Clean
Dissolving, Erasing, Escaping
I love the smell of rain
Like a long lost friend
Disguising the rapids inside me
My tears I never have to defend
I love the smell of rain
