Rain Goddess

She stood proud and tall Arms spread wide....... Her mysterious face serene Knowledge of past and future in her eyes Recalling the torrents of the yesteryears As tiny drops of rain dripped Into the parched earth below Unknown to men the rain Goddess smiled Her drops fell and vanished into the mud Seeing the future her brows wrinkled The torrent fell amid thunder The meadow and the riverside Were the witness of the fury Of the gentle rain Goddess.....! Her white steed whined and neighed As thunder God appeared...... Oh so handsome was he As he accompanied the rain The God and Goddess held hands As the sleeping village submerged The future was fearsome Unknown to man who slumbered By-Tahera Mannan Contest- Rain,The Story Sponsored by- Constance La france ~A Rambling Poet~
