Petrichor wafting
Flood waters are receding
Muddy desert floor
Dusty turns to green
The dead coming back to life
From dry summer days
Saguaro basking
Drinking in the dying light
Of the setting sun
Golden rays will fade
To darker blues and purples
Behind graying clouds
Lightning strikes the Earth
Precursor to the torrent
To begin anew
