The happiness WHORE finally drenched me.....!!!

Scorching heat was unbearable till…
Rain poured on 5th June, against sun’s will.

Man, birds and animals danced,
And in the rainfall, they joyously pranced.

But, I was not here to enjoy
So, was deprived of the first-rain joy.

Next day, the rain poured again
It tried to wet me, but in vain
Because, I was in a slumber so deep,
That I wasn’t affected by the sky’s happy weep

But today, when it started to rain,
Its efforts did not go in vain.
To feel the rain, I was too much excited
So, when the first rain drops were sighted,
Off I went to my terrace,
And the rain happily made me a mess
I allowed it to completely drench my body and dress…
But, I couldn’t be happy more
In the rain, I wanted to soar
The rain, Oh! Would happily itself pour
Oh! Rain, You are ”The happiness WHORE”

The rain drops, gently, my body hit
I enjoyed each and every tiny little bit…

It made me so fresh, so alive
It even made the trees and earth live
They emanated their natural scent,
To freshen me up even more, that was meant…

As the drops glided over my face and hands,
I just wanted to sleep on the wet land.

The rain always makes me lose sense;
I get carried away in its pleasant incense.

Satisfying the happiness of everyone
& turning the bore afternoon into a great fun,
Makes a “whore” out of the lovely fall,
“Drench me rain, Hear my call…”
