Wait...

 Song of the Koel, chirps of the sparrow,

Jumping of the squirrels from gaps narrow,

Morning alarm of the cock, the croak of frogs...

Now I know, who taught these scholars' of melody,

The art of rhythm, beats, and heavenly glory...


It is the boy with a peacock feathered crown,

The one with the flute, the charm of the town,

Whose eyes have the humble strength,

Of consoling your heart, and stealing  your breath


Blue of the boundless sky, pink of the sunset,

On the leaves green, let a droplet rest

After a day of work and life,

Let the sky, wave towards the west,

Now I know, who let life smear into the universe,


It is that boy, 

Who is the spark of life in everyone,

He is the dark little notorious one,

Wait for his arrival...

Wait...

The Urban Rains!!

The dancing branches, 
The giggling leaves, 
The triumphant clouds, 
The after summer breeze... 

 A moment of grumbling and rumbling of clouds
 A warning in disguise,
 Storm and dust, and rain and drops, 
Such is mother nature's growls... 

 The urban man enjoys, 
A cup of coffee on his balcony,
 The peasant on the other hand, 
Awaits good harvest, 
 And celebrates in harmony... 

 The tadpoles and frogs sing in the ponds,
Peacocks dance and show their heavenly bonds...

I stand still,
EMBRACING my SOLITUDE...
Resting in HIS refuge!!!
