A Rain Song Poem by kelvin karani

A Rain Song



The rain raps

On my humble roof

Making a lot of noise

That wakes up

The sleeping gecko

Which has found refuge

In a crack on the wall.



The noise would

Have been a lullaby

To an innocent kid

Inebriate with sleep

But there is no kid here

Only this dumb poet

Lost in thoughts.



A perfect cover

The noise would be

If the springs of

my rickety bed

were exercised

by me and ………



let it go on

and water what

the farmers have sowed.

In due season

We’ll bid hunger goodbye
