Poem: ‘The Magic of Monsoon’

 

‘The Magic of Monsoon’

 

The day began all bright and sunny

But, by noon dark clouds hovered.

The lightning struck and flashed

The thunder boomed and echoed.

 

The frogs croaked louder,

The ants strengthened the boulder,

The peacocks chanted-

The hymn to welcome the first rains.

The first drops drizzled

And then came the downpour!

Kids splashed in muddy pools

And left the paper boats to pave their way…

 

The insects and critters crawled about.

While the drops glistened in the rain,

A rainbow emerged amidst the clouds

And left us all lost in ecstasy.

 

Happiness suffused on the faces

As they smelt the earthy scent.

The magic of monsoon-etched in our hearts

Can never ever fade away!
