The Sutton Trust@suttontrust·

A handful of words to soothe this morning: pluviophile: a lover of rain. petrichor: the elusive, earthy smell that follows a downpour. susurrus: the whispering of leaves in the breeze. spindrift: spray swept up from the waves by the wind. suspire: to utter with a sigh.
