Rain in Paraguay

The warm rain fell hard, cooling off the dusty ground
Heat from the ground visibly rising. 
To this day I love that smell 
of wetness and dirt, 
of cleansing and cooling of the earth.
As fast as it came it left, 
Once again exposing us to the relentless summer sun
After, we kids would run from small tree to small tree 
shaking off the excess water that has fallen onto our sweaty skin
