lyrics
After the summer rains have poured
I bask in the perfume of petrichor
Within the forest’s misty shroud
I breathe in the essence of parting clouds
As the haze begins to clear
I step through shadows silent and drear
Between the trees, a winding path
Amid the willow, birch, elm, and ash
Earth, water, and air!
Accept our prayer
Wind, soil, and rain!
Until we meet again
Before the leaves begin to turn
One last dance amid the ferns
Another season’s door is closed
And I await the winter storms
Earth, water, and air!
Accept our prayer
Wind, soil, and rain!
Until the sky’s caress is felt on my face again
