Raining in Summer

Unseasonal summer rains at once burst Everywhere litter and garbage dispersed Making men run here and there for shelter In no time, life becomes helter-skelter Unexpected like facing an old friend Heat waves turn into zephyrs in the end Enraptured by a great relief to hearts Pleasant weather diffused in many parts Unlucky for farmers who toiled year long Grains stay afloat; a heart rendering song In the wink of an eye, things go tumbled Happy dreams about their kindred crumbled Unkind like a bad master who reviles Vicious arrows of words for making trials With tongue lashing, makes the servants feel hurt As huge hailstones thudding down with a spurt Unfurls an eye feasting vibrant rainbow Cleans air and makes leaves look fresh and aglow Koel starts singing as if spring gets back A curtain raiser to ‘Fall’ next on track Place: 2nd
