First Rainfall Poem by Suhail Kakorvi

THE LONGINGS OF THE EARTH AWAKENED LOVELY IS THE FIRST RAINFALL
BEFORE THIS ONE THOUGHT IN DISAPPOINTMENT DIFFICULT THE FIRST RAINFALL

WHEN THERE WAS VEXATION BETWEEN US SKY SHED FLAMES
NOW FORGET ABOUT EVERYTHING ENJOY FIRST RAINFALL

IN THE SIGHTS APPEAR THE SHADES OF MY LOVE AFFAIR
THE NEGATION OF BELOVED WAS WEATHER HOT AND POSITIVENESS IS FIRST RAINFALL

THE SENSE OF SEPARATION IS THERE IN BOTH BUT TEARS FLOW FROM MY EYES
I KNOW NOT WHAT GOES ON THAT END BUT HERE IT IS FIRST RAINFALL

WHAT FRESHNESS VISIBLE ON THE BUDS THE GREENERY HAS BLOWN
ONE CAN CALL IT THE PRELUDE OF SPRING - THE FIRST RAINFALL

THOU ART SOMEWHERE ELSE AND I AM SOMEWHERE ELSE WITH EMBRACES OF LONGING LONELY
THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED NOW THIS IS SURPRISING FIRST RAINFALL

HE IS ALL MERCY ALL GRACE AND I HAVE EXPLICIT FAITH IN THAT
THIS FOR SURE IS THE EXPRESSION OF HIS KINDNESS -THE FIRST RAINFALL
