A Drizzle Poem by Unnikrishnan Sivasankara Menon
A Drizzle
Skies overcast
Mighty elephants
In parade,
Incessant fireworks
Light the skies
And their sound
Dares the eardrums,
Conches and horns
And two sided drums,
Sun goes hiding
Is it night or day?
A mighty breeze
Comes from nowhere
Ushering in a drizzle
Too light to wet the earth
Elephants give way
For the shining diety.
A summer shower
that never was.
A drizzle is all you get from the enormous summer clouds…
A little out of my element but I always enjoy a thunderstorm, even the ones without rain!
Hi Rob, May be, this vanishing summer showers is a phenomenon unique to my place, that is, Kerala, India. Thank you for your time, and patience of course
I had posted replies to Rebecca Navarre and Dr Nehal. But both the notes have vanished.would ph help please?
It sounds very beautiful! .. And filled with much awe! .. Very beautifully and powerfully expressed! .. Definite 5 Stars! ..++++++++
Though the summer clouds may not usher in heavy showers, they are the front runner for the monsoon clouds that bless us with heavy rains, sans reins
