Weather Forecast
As the winter drifts with the northern wind
Some high latitude areas of north hemisphere
Will be in the clasp of sporadic snowstorms
Others will be mantled with dense opaque frost
Longing to feel the reviving warmth of the sun
People need to bear the chill for a fortnight.
After winter haze clears the weather will change
The spring will arrive floating in the crispy air
With the radiance of cerulean sky crystal clear
And with amiable ambiance of temperate days
Not to last long for the temperature will increase
At the onset of scorching summer of discontent.
With active El Niño the prospect of rains is favorable
The southern wind will spread moisture laden cloud
Overcast monsoon sky in some areas may fall asunder
After unpredictable cloud bursts one after another
Cyclones and tropical storms will spin on trade winds
Wreak havoc in low-lying areas with frequent floods.
The nimbus clouds will waft away clearing the sky
Low atmospheric disturbances will slowly subside
As awaited autumn will arrive with nip in the air
Occasional gusty winds at the advent of the fall
Will blow away wilted leaves from shedding trees
Make way for the freezing footfall of another winter.
