First Rain

First Rain

Fountains of happy feelings are shooting cheers all the way

Chutes of joys are showering down with the summer's first rain

Flock of birds kiss the river face in a sprightly game play

The river swells with pride inviting these merry birds again

Call of the nature is answered by trees who sway and whistle

Cleansed branches bow down to touch feet of the earth mother

Fallen leaves draw a portrait, painted in the color of drizzle

Artist in the clouds shows, why he is second to none other

Spring from the heavens has brightened the colors of the temple

Red and blue flowers compete each other with their bright colors

Many a lights dance on shimmering roads enjoying the sprinkle

Peeping Sun looks at its own reflection in water made mirrors

Sweet smell from the wet earth has captured everyone's senses

Couples fallen in love, walk arm in arm by the romantic byways

Girls look even pretty giving dazzling smiles to flirting breezes

Unhesitatingly, the lightening flashes to capture their jolly ways

Mother sheep fascinatingly watches her lamb running from the rain

Water puddles are full of playful children with nothing to complain

Withered faces in windows reflect childlike fervor through the panes

Hoping in their hearts to see again the next summer's first rain
