I almost can not belive it. This afternoon of Sunday, the sky is overcast and the sensation is of happiness. We need that it rains. In three months only have fallen four drops. Everything is dry. The grass in all parks is yellowish. The City can't water all the time.
The temperature is pleasant. Neither cold not heat. A light breeze brings a pleasant smell of wet earth nearby.
There are a lot of people down, in the park. Many children are finishing the last minutes off before the storm that is coming. Their parents are keeping a watchful eye on heaven.
At last it is going to rain.
Longed-FOR Rain
ReplyDeleteI almost can not believe it. This SUNDAY afternoon, the sky is overcast and the sensation is of happiness. We need IT TO RAIN (or even better: We need rain.).

I really like the last two sentences. They bring the passage to a poetic close.
