3rd in the 'Watch Out! 2000' competition

I can see the plants grow in the rain today.
I can see the leaves fall as the rain pushes them down,
I can hear the leaves falling into puddles.
I can smell the flowers, the smell as the raindrops drop on
Their petals.
I just think about the rain dripping on the roof.
I wish I could go and play.
