Amidst the Weeping Rain
Amidst the weeping rain,
the hours refuse to move
as if they feel hard to bear
everything stagnated
adding more to strain and pain.
In this pit dark new moon night
gusty winds and non stop rain
led to power off and all stand still
adding more to strain and pain
The rain with thunder
made no human voice heard
but little later a whine
adding more to strain and pain
Dogs and puppies wail
as their kennel struck with a log
rushed to pull it apart
and to part from the strain and pain.
Darkness and silence threatens
when a little sound or light is sensed
catch it, release someone
you will be relaxed.
Amidst the weeping rain,
the hours refuse to move
wait, that too will pass
hope sustains life.
