The fragrance of soil after rain.
Smell it once, never leave it.
The fresh aroma, pleasing scent,
It has the unique smell.
Petrichor makes men mesmerized.

Plant oil, geosmin released by rain from the soil.
The earthy smell permeates into the air.
Earth's fragrance is loved by everyone.
Musky freshness comes from moistening of the ground.

Rain shows beauty by its perfume.
It engulfs the earth through its odors.
It spreads cherished messages between the sky and the earth.

Ozone zings my nostrils,
as I watch the angry storm approach,
a wall of falling silver is now visible,
it is consuming all it touches as it eases my way.

A blinding flash and a
clap of thunder rolls,
geosmin and petrichor
overwhelm my sense of smell.

The wind begins to run
through the mint and rosemary,
and pinon pine needles begin to fall,
a potpourri of sweet, herbal, and spicy.

Giant drops begin to fall,
splashing on my face,
I close the door on the storm,
to the smell of roasting chicken.
