The Rain Of Wisdom Poem by Umasree Raghunath

The Rain Of Wisdom



Sitting in the office window, amidst the pile of work
I stare outside for a second, and see the storming rainfall
Thoughts flowed like a streaming brook, with eyes wide open
Into the cataclysmic of the nature all around
The mountains in the far looked like the shining canyons
Whispering to the weighed mules that carry people around
I know I need to take this few minutes to scribble down
Or else these thoughts are going to be prolonged
Looking for the sun on a windy rainy day from ground
Is like always wanting things that you don't have around
The showers that flow on the glass window pane
Remind me that how much ever the tears of pain
They would just disappear along the wind and disdain
Calmness engulfed all around, there cannot be inner calmness
To the tensed thoughts' of a heart that knows not to rejoice
It is the lack of faith that creates limitations
And it is the lack of thoughts' that creates the boundaries
Once you are free from the limits and learn to go by nature
Life can be nothing but all yours and truly better
The rain is still pouring down the mountains,
And whispering into the leaves that sway in happiness
The roads are all wet and walkers are careful to step around
The cars are buzzing off the freeway in the far round
And see…now the rains of wisdom, started to fade from my thoughts
And it's just done in 2 minutes of my time, and time to go back
To my pile of work that's actually not using my wisdom of rain!
