By the window, In the rain...


By the window
In the rain

Fresh whiffs of brown baked soil
Drenched in sudden showers

Bright yellow flowers of an overgrown creeper
Drops dancing on big green leaves’ bosom

Little, raincoat-wrapped, smiling faces
Bright umbrellas, walking on the road

Soaked sparrows, fluttering, chattering
Perching on the wooden window sill

Twinkling drops, hanging loosely in a row
From the electricity & telephone cables

Cows, chewing the cud, twitching tails
Huddled beneath the roadside tree

And a palm, stretched, out of a window
Trying to hold the joy, that drips from the sky
