Rainstorm In Summer

Rainstorm in Summer

               Appeared tropical scorching summer
               burning searing, scalding heat to itch skin
               strongly hitting with humid hot hammer.
               Angry ambient fiery to shine.  
      
              Flamboyant trees glisten on dazzling crimson
              Summer breeze throws pollen all around      
              Scarlet blooms glaze on glossy silk cotton.
             Torn petals spin with whirling wind on ground.
     
             Weary birds seek shadow, hardly dare to fly.
               take shelter in nest for coolness and rest.
             To quench thirst Jacobin cuckoo to cry.
              Eager farmer prays for rains to harvest.
              
             Stormy parching weepy wind went hot dry.
            Without grass fields get cracked and yielded drought.
             Sudden gust with blazing Sun: Dusty sky.
            Roaring storm and floating clouds rushed and fought.
            
            Heavy showers brought desired blessing.
            Soil is soaked as petrichor-claimer.
            Romance roamed to be sealed in deep kissing
            on hot welcome of rainstorm in summer.
