When the rains come...
I love your imagery of colour and the plants waiting 'agog'. You can really see them stretching out their necks and petals to soak up the rain.

I do love the rain to awaken the plants! Fine poem, too! We seem to get some everyday I jokingly say I have to get my work done between the rain drops! Your poem was a delightful read, too! sam

Having a fair amount of rain in my part of the world as well. Let's hope there's some truth in the adage "April showers bring May flowers".

I love the smell of the first drops of rain on a dry and dusty land
that's been waiting for it for such a long time.
