Rainy reverie

And when I got lost again,

Lazily lying in my window side bed-

The rhythm of the rain pouring-

Reverberating deep within me,

Stirring up the soul, reverie putting on

The wings and started flying, soaring up…

Yes, drenched in rain-

Where I am to touch the rainbow-

Who had vanished after giving a brief glimpse!

Agape was filling in, 

Me, transforming to the happiest creature

Fiddling with the sweet moments,

Though it did fill tears too…

The desolate roads, wet in the mighty rain

Carpeted in the red fallen bloom of gulmohar;

Empty chairs, vacant pavements…

And me, alone, as always…

I used to be alone in crowd-

Now totally alone for real.

I opened eyes, bringing myself to the present-

When the wind swiftly sprinkled the rain 

As if waking me from my wandering…

I smiled, watching the pouring rain drops falling 

In the river forming miniature ripples.
