An Ode For Rain Poem by Nikunj Sharma

An Ode For Rain

Rating: 4.9


Buried under the earth
They need you, to give birth
To new seedlings
Natures worthy offerings

They can’t eye
The pregnant sky
They can only pray
Unless you come down on earth
Seeds of time shall stay

Slowly as your drops kiss
The heart of heated earth
In her womb, shall germinate
The cause of human mirth

By now the pregnant sky ought to have delivered its burden.....but economic despair might yet loom in the future if the 'burden' is not big enough. Lets pray. Cheers. Subroto
