Tribute to the Rains 

And then it finally came
What was very much sought
And what was most needed 
As people even prayed for

Eventually, the rains did arrive
Coming as it did in a flurry
Consuming with it all anxiety,
Uncertainty, the heat and dust 

In whatever shape it did land
As speedy drizzle or brazen shower; 
Noisy downpour continued all nights,
With lightning and thunder 

Hurtling down came the stormy rain 
With gale and gusty winds, splashing,
Causing muddy pools and rolling floods; 
Hurriedly filling up lakes and reservoirs

Wishes grew, for it to be regular  
Each year and round the year; enough,
For that alone would mean, growth
And bring in, wealth and happiness

And thus it raised the hopes of farmers
From communities far and wide; who,
Ever so expectant gazed at the sky:
For rains alone made their crops thrive

For Flora and Fauna to bloom manifold
As pastures and fields spring back to life 
Plants and trees turning to refreshing green
As marshy lands all get wet and soaked 

At long last the Rain Gods had scampered in
Bringing with it promises of plenty and cheer;
Making the air clean and pollutants free
And ushering in climate for a comfort spree

Children rushed to get drenched for fun 
While others chose to cuddle in the bed 
A delight that's been quite forgotten 
For rains brought thrill to all age brethren 

It often inspired families to stick together 
And munch crispy snacks chattering together; 
With a myriad of thoughts and dreams 
And alas life for man got all set to zoom!

It didn't really matter how rains showed up
Through a 'cyclone' or a ‘depression’
All it did was to arrive in style and substance; 
To the stupendous amazement of all asunder 

Whether in torrents or in spate
Raindrops did charge the water bodies
Making insects and worms come alive 
For birds to flutter and butterflies to swarm 

The wonder of this refreshing shower 
Instantly thrilled my heart with heavenly beat, 
And thoughts pleasantly ebbed in my mind
To string words together and sing in praise

Great God indeed; did this resource, bless,
For bereft of it; all life shall be a thing of past  
And with it the journey of all living things 
May well see the light of millenniums ahead!
