petrichor

 petrichor 


it has been raining in the night

both french doors are open wide

cool damp air converses around my knees

not one flower moves except to drip occasionally

the gentle violin music flows over the scene

of my third cup of tea my third thought that

this is so serene that my fingers wander away

to type some lovely day thoughts for you

so far away where your sun has risen before it got to me

and all the garden waits expectantly

there 

see there is our dunnock holding my breath

again the cat is fast asleep fast asleep

fast asleep
