The Shower...

Sitting to study this morning...

I saw the winds blowing,

Leaves dancing in delight -

Caressed by the rain drops

Trickling off their face.

And, I heard the rain come down,

Its constant drone -

As it descended on the soil

And made mud-pools.

And, I felt the rain drops

Falling on my cheeks, split

Into thousands; encompassing

My face - giving its blessings.

 Here,             A drop traveled down

                            The length of a slant rope;

                        There,            Banana leaves embraced one another,

                         Dancing in sheer delight.

And I saw all.

And then, 'twas over...

Leaving behind water -

Water on earth, water inside soil,

On leaves and on my face -

...And I felt contended.
