Wednesday Poetry Corner: Petrichor

Smell of petrichor,
Grey above the green palm fronds,
Nature's gifts abound.

  1. I need to google "petrichor." That is a new word for me!

    1. It's one of my favorite "big words". (Was it on your blog where you posed that question?" You've probably looked it up by now, but it's a word that means the smell of rain, specifically, I think it's the combination of rain hitting dirt.

    1. It's a nice thing down here, the rain comes in small batches, so there's often a smell accompanying it.

I enjoy a good debate. Feel free to shake things up. Tell me I'm wrong. Ask me why I have such a weird opinion. ...or, just laugh and tell how this relates to you and your life.
