Poem#17 - Colorful Rain

the drumroll comes in
i wonder why
whose grand entrance is it?
wait, is it from the sky?

suddenly everything sounds the same
the audience just roars
its the rain!
wow, its already stolen the show

the vast sky is painted
with gray and white
the air is filled and thrilled
and packed so tight

the trees, the plants, the grass
they all gracefully sway
the breeze accompanied the rain
completing a musical in this natural broadway

different shades of green
is mostly all that i can see
the red mud washed away by the rain
in amongst it are my feet

the ducks cry in glee
its like their prayer is finally answered
their joy can be sensed in their dance
even though they certainly aren't good dance

Poem#1 - Wishes in the Rain

I was sitting with my books

I wasn't bothered about them

I was stuck in thoughts

in thoughts about you

I saw from the window

it was raining

it kept me wondering

whether it was your love I saw or God's caring

late in the night where the moon keeps its shine

I see you in it; also my cloud's silver line

out in the rain I want to be with you

wouldn't it be great, if it could be true!

but how can I know that you love me

after all you never gave me a yes

quietly you stood away

just making me anxious and worried

not knowing where you were

but it did give me the pleasant feeling

just like the rain drenching away...

my thirst yet which never quenches

when I got to see you and talk to you

I still wonder whether all the time

I give in for you, thinking about you, living for you

is worth the hope that one day

I'll have you by my side, when you'll be loving me too

just like waiting for the rain hoped for

to wash away my pain and...
bring forth my love.
