For a Shower of Rain

For A Shower Of Rain Dr. Ranjit Dutta Once you said-- This is the first Rain of monsoon Let us both Get wet together. Moonlight dribbles In dreamland Let us play with moondrops With silvery shoes. You said once too- Open the closed door Let a spring breez Enter to the room. The silvery tamarisks Are dancing marily, Let us go quietly Beyond the horizon. What a time it was ! A crazy time Of my golden youth! A time Much earlier of my House arrest days In a hush island. Staying far distant In sullen moments, I feel your warm touch On my forehead, And waiting eagerly Even today For a shower of Monsoon rain.
