Notes About The Poem

THE RAIN AND THE LAKE

And the lake asked the rain, 
Why do you overwhelm with your love over and over again? 
The rain broke for a while for a thought, 
and came back with more showers as the eternal play of love. 

Rain said I came from distant land and oceans to meet you, 
Lake said I have been waiting forever for you. 
Rain said I am the true lover, I dissipate and merge in you, 
Lake said Thank you rain, I am the reservoir of love, 
I keep your love and share it with others who want it. 
 
Rain said I am glorious, come with thundering dark to fluffy soothing clouds, 
I provide the world with the nectar of life, 
Lake said I am still and adore the beautiful mountain and blue skies, 
I provide heaven to all forms of aquatic lives. 

Rain said even when I am breaking away, I bring the beautiful rainbow, 
I provide a bridge from land to heavens for thoughts to ponder, 
Lake said I have overcome the emotions of joyful sunny days and dark gloomy night, 
I only feel happy when I am desired by somebody.
