Ode to the Cleansing Rain

Oh, sweet crystalline diamonds from the sky
Bringing the musty smell of ozone from the heavens high
Cleansing the corrupt day and the blasphemus night as it slowly streams by

Washing away the worlds fowl deeds
Wiping clean the pollution of years past
In the Odiferous Barrage of gossamer beads

Pristine tears plunge on down from the celestial sphere
Purging Bespattered sins of years
Forming beautiful pulchritudinous curtains sheer

Washing away the crimes of decades past
In the oh so silent deluge
Such power, by none, has ever been surpassed

Serene drops cling to coniferous trees
Refracting light like the most flawless prism
Sometimes dropping amidst the gentile summer breeze

Waning as the day draws to a close
Hitching a ride on the Wild West Wind
Quietly gliding as she silently blows

Oh, sweet crystalline diamonds from the sky
Leaving the musty smell of ozone from the heavens high
And the serene day and silent night as it slowly passes by
