A happy juncture
A Happy Juncture
Rains fall
to blot out every single one
To colour and beautify the ranging world
Angry, sad, or simply ready to bustle
From a whirlwind of leaves rustling
Gathering fruits and smelling soggy of the plain.
Writers, painters and lovers wait for drops of rain
Trees, plants and creepers, even birds and beasts
To cuddle the coolness of the droplet from heaven.
Men, women and children pray for God
For a shower of rain falling on the earth
Keenly eying the sky for the first sign of grey
Cola, detergent, cover and all other ads,
Swiftly having a dash of monsoon raids
Couples, farmers and shopkeepers
Singing, dancing and chuckling in the rain.
Roads swell up, houses and hedges wash away
Slums and quarters submerge under water
But the children and young make rafts and play
To float in water besides streams and bays
To enjoy the beauty of natural green.
