Before the Rains

Blue blankets darken, announcing opening of the skies, downpour ~ first one tear from the farmer - revealed by peacock's dance... Rain, impending. These are Nature's signs.

Excellent. Congratulations on your win. I remember a movie, "Before the rains"... in which my namesake Nandita Das played the protagonist. :)

What a picturesque sketch of Rains with the dance of peacock adding more colors in your Rain's paintings. Beautiful lines and a creative work. My good wishes for your contest entry and thank you once again for your Vote after going through my Blog for my Short film. It's good surprise from a new PS friend. I would come back on your poem a little later. Are you from India? Love and best wishes always Sneha....Ravindra K Kapoor
