A RAINY THOUGHT

Its dark and gloomy
Outside my window
Dark clouds hovering
Like an alien UFO


A loud thundering
Fills the dark sky
Like hundred drums
At once playing by


And in all that darkness
Lightning appears
Displaying its tremendous power
Gripping my heart with fears


Its all chaos and mess
In the city
This power of nature
Shows no pity


But we need this rain
Like air to breathe
A sign of prosperity
Of good luck and deed


I see these school kids
Splashing water everywhere
Not a drop of concern
Mind free from care


People heading for work
Worried about delayed trains
Burdened with responsibilities
Hurrying through the lanes


A respite to the farmers
After a long dry spell
Its not just a drop of water
Its happiness as well


I smell that earthy fragrance
I feel this breeze, so cold
Its wild untamed nature
Ready to unfold
