Suddenly Poem by Unnikrishnan Sivasankara Menon
Suddenly
dark clouds fiery
mar the sun
and the sky,
this is Kerala.
It seemed
rains are here,
but alas!
a gust of wind
washes
the clouds away.
a breeze cool
rainsoaked
saunters in.
it has rained
cats and dogs
elsewhere.
I have written "a gust of wind /washes /the clouds away." I did not write "a gust of wind / chases /the clouds away." Deliberately. Hope my fellow poets understand
Guest of wind always sways away rain to some other area.Enjoyed your depiction of rain saunter
Windswept clouds take your rains away. Is it the wind's vagabond nature (in Sanskrit wind is called ‘Anila' meaning the one that does not stay at one place)
I cite your last three lines: It has rained cats and dogs elsewhere but not in Kerala! Sweetest created, excellenly worded. Home Sweet Home, Your Kerala, the most beautiful. TOP Marks
Try to visit Kerala at least once, if you have not yet
While during the monsoons, it rains cats and dogs all over kerala, the gods own country, the pre-monsoon showers might play hide and seek..
