Waiting For Rain

The waft of petrichor filling nostrils
      The drizzle sending a cold chill
Toddlers with paper boats rushing towards puddles
       Declaration of holiday makes children chuckle
Office-goers ambling with umbrellas
        Octagenarians reminiscing with novellas
Farmers look unto rain as God's gift
        Ombrophobians flee in a jiff

Ample RAIN causes GAIN!
Surplus RAIN causes PAIN!
