Living the Rainy Day
Creeping clouds dissolve on the grey misty ground,
rains slant on the trail of surging waves of torrent.
You feel the sliding sky is falling on you and
seek protection under an open umbrella
you carry for its multi-colors match your mind’s hue.
The transient colors melt in the teary rains of sorrow,
flow like a stream of tinted emotions,
meandering on the washed out pathway
you travelled aimless to where you’re
in the midst of nowhere on a rainy day.
With the mind drained out you stand desolate,
the solitude of the rain-soaked day fills the void
with the promise of the rising crystalline horizon
reflecting the last tinge of the departing day
that you’d want to seize and live the moment
painting the rain-rinsed mind once again
where emotions will be colored by the rainbow.
