Rain Brought Smile Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Rain brought smile
Monday,3rd May 2021

There was drizzling rain outside
you had decided to remain indoors
waiting for me to appear at the door
feeling little soreness for my absence

years have passed since then
we had really no time to feel heaven
but looked at children
for their safety and education

today's drizzling reminded me
when I was a young and freeman
I had seen her and chosen
to become companion

life made us struggle
but we faced it and came over the hurdles
life was limited with purpose
but we chose happily a new course

the rain had offered little coolness
it gave us a smile on the face
life itself was enterprising
and surprising both of us
