HUMIDITY

HUMIDITY
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
‘tis July, and the sun doth blaze,
as I shuffle through heat's fiery haze.
      With sweat on my brow,
      I wonder just how 
I’ll escape the sun's hot fiery gaze!

Water Source

There's a water shortage in countries,
especially where there's strife,
and air conditioning is needed,
to lead a pleasant life.
We also have bone-dry Bermuda
where, except for 5" monthly rainfall,
collected in cisterns or brought by tanker ship,
there's no water to be had at all.
Attempting to inform the people in power,
an endeavour which failed of course,
what every island AC emits,
and it's their free drinking source.
As AC units create water naturally,
on average 5 to 20 gallons
of condensate per day,
producing H2O from humidity,
it's a crime to let it waste away.
It may be but a drop in the bucket,
and yet, place a clean container,
when the unit is switched on,
to collect the drips
of distilled water, safe to imbibe,
below the condensation drain,
and you may have a million sips
again and again and again.

THE SHOWER OF CRYSTAL DROPLETS

The beauty of the rain when those crystal drops fall on us, is what this poem is all about.

The droplets fall on me now,
As pure as a plain crystal- Even I do not know how,
They fall on my body,
I wish I was called worthy of it-By somebody.

I feel glad and blessed,
When those crystals on my body-Gets pressed,
I feel relived and chaste,
Forgetting my gender, religion and caste.

They fall on me one after the other,
And are waiting to fall on me,
When they clash across each other,
I could feel from this worldly stress- Fully Free!

HUMIDITY IN MY COUNTRY

Foreigners in our humid country pray*
To smite heat with triumphant icy tray
Savoring popsicle sticks
Midst constant cold water-licks
As they are fired-up by bright Summer ray.

*Philippians 4:6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

Humidity

humidity's grips
a dampened silence of wings
shadowless movement

Low Humidity

Low humidity 
setting everything aflame,
natural instinct.

Party Humidity

outside, it was raining
as it was inside 

drinks spilling onto the floor
from incessantly topped-up glasses held by 
forgetting, gesticulating hands
  
spittle flying from mouths attached to people 
in love with their own voices
their little huddled audiences salivating 
over every word or the prospect 
of taking their turn as court-holder 
  
the room drooling with  
go-to anecdotes and jokes
rehearsed at a hundred parties like this one
disgorged from speech bubbles like fat storm clouds 
filling dead air with stories on life support

sudden thunderclaps of laughter
precipitating further precipitation

the floor must have been wet but thankfully 
not gleaming like the pavement twelve floors down

the rain let up outside

I slipped out onto the balcony 
and between sips of my stale beer 
gulped the laundered air

Rains Joy

Magical, musical raindrops skydive through the atmosphere.

The clouds may growl and grumble, but you just keep dancing.

Earth’s flowers drink you, with a passionate thirst;
You bring sweet life.

Humidity Drops

HUMIDITY DROPS

sunshine-rain and chivalrous clouds
a summer of droughtless drops
i’m chilly under the humidless fan
a season of happy thoughts

Verse

Humidity

Breathing thick heat in,
watching the fan spin above--
hating humidity.

Howling of Humidity

HOWLING OF HUMIDITY

No wind blows.
The sweat of a dandelion,
No seeds sold
To the gardener there.
No planting of pretty peacocks.
Umbrella wide above the sun,
Puddles gather but don’t sink
To the humid earth,
Dusty red and brown.
Flooded with handheld fans,
Flowers alive on origami paper,
Promises of windswept dreams
Of a lazy Southern sea and ice tea.

Humidity

Humidity’s validity
Is limited to plants
‘Cause people would avoid it
If they only had the chance.

For mugginess, like bugginess,
Does nothing but annoy.
It’s not the type of weather
That I ever could enjoy.

The ickiness of stickiness
Just brings me to my knees.
I’m sure I’m not the only one
Who’d much prefer to freeze!

Humidity

Droplets of sweat form
On my skin
As lightning cracks

Humidity

thunder clouds peak

     and lightning zigzags - 
     
     perspiration trickles

Sneaky Humidity

“All dressed to kill; please don’t let it rain!”
Hours spent with flat iron
Straightening out the curls
Here comes sneaky humidity to undo this “do”
