Rain

As I look out my window, I see a sudden smile on people's faces walking by, Some more energy in their strides, The anger and irritation meters are down That happens when the rains comes around. The clouds are flowering all over the sky, The koyal bird is chirping away in delight, The green colour is growing brighter in daylight, The fragrance of the moist earth prevails. The rains are here ! Water supply problems start to disappear Leakage in some houses may start to reappear The potholes get a new life, Traffic jams time to time The rains are here ! Wish life was also so easier that a swish of rain would make things simpler. Maybe wash away some stress, which seems so near every time we try and steer to stay clear of the mad rush and the greed that defines this creed. Wish the shade the dark clouds provide The gentle cool wind that rains revive, could reduce a little bit of anguish and ease some minds. And do this trick every time. As hard as we might try the holes we dig ,get bigger each time We still move on, with our daily grinds and don't turn back to see what we left behind. The earth enjoys the rain still so much, Than us who tread the road taken before Still run around wanting more and more the rains are here, the rains are here but alas our souls they are beyond repairs !
