When the Sky Rained Nectar
As the scurrying clouds clashed and broke
Sparks of light cut instant pathways
Thunder stamped across the darkening sky
Like an enraged beast, violently hurt
Witnessing this accident of a collision,
The sky’s bosom heaved in suppressed pain
In her sunken eyes, tears flooded unawares
And fell, drop by drop in deep dismay
The cacophonous wind joined in a waltz
With the drops tumbling out of tune
Holding hands from heaven’s heights,
They together came down in violent clatter
The grass and plants had a passionate romance
With this spill out from sky’s seamless heights
Drunk with heavenly elixir, the thirsty earth lay content
And glossy leaves giggled, washed clean of all dirt
As rain cleanses the earth and bathes the plants
It douses the heat and fire in racked minds
With sonorous whispers and cooling jets of balm,
It ignites poets’ fancy to compose verse and soar high
