The cool tamp of rain drops extract their toll with sweet scents pervading summer's warm voice. Life bids refreshment to its aired soul as Heaven's passion gives cause to rejoice. No words can be heard o'er the mist or squall the earth falls silent in tribute by choice. Such softness that coats earth's thirst with its hope brings promise of wealth beyond the eye's scope.
