After A Rain

Oh, the smell of rain washed air 
Cleansing waters everywhere
Earth proudly wearing finery
Birds chorusing in harmony

Just stepping on the garden path
Brings solace to my weariness
I think I’ve been inside too long
I need to hear God’s nature song

Sunlight shines on raindrops clear
Kissing flowers, leaves, all near
Drinking heaven’s cheer to fill
Bursting glories blooming still

Pulling weeds, yes, has its place
To urge me from my quiet nest
To work outside and dwell awhile
In God’s majestic nature smile
