Indian Summer

It comes like a monster with deep red eye,
With a shroud of death, covering the sky,
From the bar of ocean, drinking raw beer,
With deep red eye it comes like a monster.
 
In a dusty barren field, it plays like a mad,
In the kingdom of hell, our day goes bad.

River lies silent with her frail shrill health,
Forest stops singing, losing their wealth;
Mountain prays God, sitting like a saint;
With her frail shrill health river lies silent.

In the colorless garden sun laughs loud,
In the empty dead puddle, it paints all rude.  

We feel nice taste with tasty sweet melon;
Chilled juice we make with sour little lemon,
Cucumber with salt chilly, we enjoy our best;
With tasty sweet melon we have nice taste.

A best hue is painted with Gulmohar* flower,
Life is little tough, in hot Indian summer.

Gulmohar* - An Indian flower having red color

Indian summer is torrid hot, with sweltering heat, and Unquenchable thirst! The relief that torrential downpour brings is fresh in my memory! The western world has misunderstood Indian summer. In UK summer is two days in June and a few days in September!! Hence a good day is often called an Indian summer! Good one Manmath.

oh I was thinking of an AMerican indian summer, which is a different thing than this. Now I really can see what this is. It's YOUR summer because you are in India . Did you know that for americans, Indian summer is when the nice warmer days of summer revisit the fall? This was awesome description.
