The Seed Of Life Poem by Aniruddha Pathak

Clouds thunder, roar aloud when I arrive,
Life all around on earth hails me full heart,
And rainbows paint when I set to depart.
It's not me alone still that earth's alive,
Sun sustains and air renders a fresh breath,
Then who among us garners greater faith?

Monsoon when comes, the rain songs of life sings,
Whistling winds with dancing notes fill air,
Enlivening next spring wafting on wings,
Sun peeps, rainbows add colour, notes sound fair,
Rain droplets kiss many a hopeful face,
And oft when clouds scatter in greyish sky,
Nudged by breeze, sun pops out with some grimace
That seems to say: how dare dark clouds defy?
Long may have we games of hide and seek played,
On alchemy this, seed of life is laid.

The deliberations among sun, rain, and air took a little long to settle and this sonnet had to allow itself two lines more before a conclusion was reached.
