the bus door opens...
in floods the ozone
scent of new rain 
or
bus door opens...
in floods the scent
of new rain

Go with the 2nd one. New rain smells sweet; skip the ozone.

You're right Adelaide the 2nd version is better. Thanks for stopping by...

Nice, Frank... both; I favor the more simplistic, option two.

Then, only to compliment Frank, the contrary, the work day ends:

bus door opens
out spills the day's scents
heading home

Hi Frank
and we have beautiful sun here in Warsaw :)
But rain is also necessary sometimes
and haiku about rain, too.
For such an occasion I prefer the second one :)
Have a good week-end, best regards
Iris
