Its has to rain

Eventually it has to rain
Sky has to go dark and cloudy

Then a moment of windy silence
Leading to a never ending downpour

No matter how hot the summer was
Melting our green earth to brown




No matter how the clear the sky was
Like the vast wave less ocean above us

Even if its the spring time coming ahead
Or the dark winter days coming up

Sky has to go dull and gray
Waiting for the word to spread

Then a moment of anticipatory hush
Leading to an awaited cloudburst




For the dust to settle into its place
After flying high and wide from its blood

It has to come back with the deluge
For a new beginning and rising

Be it spring time ahead or the dark winter
It has to rain..Those drops should fall...

GLITTERING ROAD

Into the rain,I walked

To the rain ,I talked

In a rainy night Im all alone

Walking in the street all alone

Made mates with shimmering light

And flirted with reflection of light

As she glittered in the black road

As she glowed in the black road

She shone golden of the neon lamp

She winked at me , once again

She was there looking at me for hours

I shared my pain with her and sorrows

In that rainy night,I was no more alone

Sitting in the footpath,I was not at all alone

She was listening to me,the whole night

She was winking and glittering all night

At dawn,Slowly she went away

Leaving me alone,she faded away

As vehicle and sun were to be seen

She was nowhere to be seen

And I walked of that street slowly

And I am still waiting for a rainy night

To meet her once again in that footpath

To see her ,talk to her as she glittered in the black road
