Cute and thoughtful pondering of a natural phenomenon.

I like the way you bring our attention to one detailed moment, and explore it. And I also love that rained-on-earth smell (though have you noticed that the smell seems to roll in even when the rain has not quite started falling yet)? I have a friend who eats handfuls of soil when it rains, just for that smell.

I love the smell of rain and agree….where does it come from? Great descriptive writing!

It’s true, it does smell so good! Before reading this, I had honestly never thought about the fact that the smell is there even before it rains. Cute story.

Nice! Rain falls on everything, but smells like none of them when they are wet.
Especially dogs.

I love that smell. It’s especially hard to describe, I just call it “that smell after rain…” but idk if it has a word lol.

@stargazer: lol, yeah I don’t think it would smell quite as good with a wet dog smell mixed in. :D

@everyone else: thanks for the comments! and the pencils!!
