Mud Allures Me
mud~I love the musky scent that evaporates from the moistened earth bed during downpour and also relish sailing paper boats on the puddles.It serves as a home for tiny insects and invisible bacterias.
precipitated
by deluge emits sweet whiff
forms splashing puddles
Disclaimer: The special aroma that manifests in the air while rainfall is referred to as petrichor ~which actually comes from a bacteria called actinomycete that resides in dampened soil.
