Strange Moods Of Rain – The Rain Has Left Me… Poem by Angelina Pandian

Where have you gone
My love! My Rain!
Oh! Rain clouds
Where have you borne
My lover away?
We were together
Just now it seems
But, now I search
I grope around
No sight of him remains
The sun has come out now
To drink what was left behind
After earth had drunk her fill
It is so hot once again
And I am famished
My thirst unslaked
Bereft of my brief joy
He has left me abandoned
For other pleasures
Maybe he now dances
With the flowers and leaves
Watching the peacocks
Hearing the Koel sing
Pouring on hilltops
Flowing free downhill
As a milky waterfall
Chasing butterflies
With the spray
Kissing flowers
With tiny drops of rain
Maybe he forgot me!
Tell me friends
Will he come back
Twirl me and take me
In his arms again
Tell him friends
I wait for him
To come back and
Quench my thirst soon!
