Comment from RICH01
Bravo, Excellent. The rhythm is excellent. There are no hick-up. All of the words fit that is they are well chosen and each line leads to the next until the end. The end especially is very good. The writer could be writing about the joy of rain on herself. It is not totally unexpected but it is a little twist that makes the poem quite delightful that it is the earth that can finally drink. It is also short and to the point, no extra unneeded adjectives, a fault, I think we all tend to have.
Again, Excellent.

Comment from Liberty Justice
Poet vividly describes how state looking for rain for parched land. California hadn't had rain in a while. Flowing fluent lines represent speak of downpours. liberty justice

Comment from robyn corum
those lovely quenching drops
--> funny how your perspective can change, isn't it?
I've worried about our friends in the far western parts of the States, so I'm glad to hear they're getting some relief! A great poem with lovely images. Good luck in the contest!
