Raining In Summer


There is nothing quite like 
rain in summer 

          Summer season looks 
          As young and beautiful as Spring.
          Petrichor wafts in the breeze. 
          Flowers are blooming here and there.
          A seed is growing into a tree. 

          It's pouring rain after a hot day;
          Get under the rain to cool down.
          A colorful rainbow is hovering 
          Above the afternoon sky 
          After a stormy weather.

There's nothing quite like 
rain in summer.

          The sky looks gray today,
          But rest assured,
          The Sun will come out tomorrow.
          Bring out your inner child;
          Splash out a water puddle!

          A cloudburst comes after 
          A long, unforgiving drought.
          Mother Earth quenches her thirst.
          Let us all rejoice!
          Let us all rejoice!

There's nothing quite like 
rain in summer.

Do agree. We had a sweltering summer. At the end, when the rain pelted down, what a relief and joy it was. Your poem beautifully celebrates the thrill and joy of the summer rain. Your refrain adds to the effect of the poem.Congratulations dear friend on your placement.

Dear EI, when i first read your poem, while judging, i couldnt help but admire the lyrical flow and rhythm of your well articulated lines. And the refrains too just fits perfectly and gives a very rain-kissed ambience, in such eloquence. Pleasure reading your work. Thank you for entering my contest. Congratulations on your well deserved win!
