Haiku: Puddles from Heaven

I love the smell in the air after it rains. As a child, I use to love playing in puddles. Recently my two youngest daughters went out in our yard to jump in puddles. Children are so carefree and happy. They see things in a different light than adults.

Children dance in rain
jump in puddles from heaven
- blissful smell of rain

    I'm not sorry, but I'm 70 years old and I'm still a child when it comes to rain. Of course I live in the desert where there isn't a lot of rain, but I still love standing out there when rain is coming down like a waterfall. It revives my soul and it makes puddles from heaven.

    Puddles remind us that some things are only temporary - but should be enjoyed to the fullest :) cheers!

    I love how carefree children are at times. It sometimes makes me wish that I could go back to that time so I can get a break from the adult world. Great haiku :)
