The Rain and Me

The sea, so calm, sat next to me,

The scarlet sky, my ceiling,

I sat, with my thoughts, beneath the palms,

As slowly, the night was unveiling.

Fishermen’s boats, out afar,

Approaching me, like a friend,

The monsoon clouds, threaten,

To bring my thoughts, to an end

Distant thunder, echoing loud,

A flash of lightning, lights the sky,

Only a moment, before the rain pours down,

In the rain, my heart does fly

Walking in the drizzle, I hum,

A bird, voices its songs with me,

In these serene backwaters,

That is like home to me

When I was young, I had danced,

In this rain, untamed and wild,

Now I hold only memories,

Moments like these, I wish I was I child
