A Play Of Rain! Poem by Ramesh T A

A Play Of Rain!

Rating: 4.5


Rain lashed out with lighting and thunder for two days!
Then there was no rain but clouds were moving in the sky.
People going to the beach carried umbrellas with them;
After a day believing there won’t be rain went Scot-free!

Many groups of people regularly come and talk for hours
Making beach a pastime club rather than a walking place
And make disturbances to peace loving calm people there!
Nature played a game to teach them all a lesson forever!

After a walk I sat in my usual place for 10 minute rest there;
A group of people talking at high pitch were without umbrellas;
A slight drizzle provoked them to get up and hurry for home;
Then the falling dropp of rain stopped and I started home.

But seeing no heavy rain other groups again started talking
When I reached the other end again rain started to fall….
All the groups rushed out to home without anyone sitting there;
Again the rain stopped and I had a small snack before return!

After a 5 minute halt I started walking home without umbrella;
Everywhere the roads and pavements were clean due to rain;
Everything looked clean and orderly without govt. cleaning daily!
When I just entered my home heavy rain fell down like hell long!
