Suddenly the glumly looking storm strikes
Cascades of water come in rushing waves
The celestial faucet is opened wide
Engulfing the earth in a curtain of rain
And as it started, it stopped ...
A thin radiant light pierces through the clouds
A ray of gold spreads all about
Every blade of grass with crystalline drops
Trembling & transparent, they flicker
The road shone & the mystical vapor escapes
The rainbow arched in colorful regalia
Nature’s struck by awe, surprised by joy
Every leaf, flower, grass with gladness sang
The mayfly hovered over the satiated pond
The crow cawing runs about looking for its worm
The veil had been pulled, nature is bared
The sun’s fingers are tickling the earth
And every living creature is in laughter
Dazzling, melting into a kaleidoscopic vision
Of colors & everything has turned sweeter
A continent of shining clouds spread above
Radiant towers & hillocks of clouds gingerly parading
Touched by the hem of luminous beauty all around
Birds chirping, darting, singing, frolicking, enthused
In the field of millions of dancing daffodils

- Comment from author about the poem: Being from a tropical island, we get a lot of rain. Flash rains in torrential pouring is the norm. But what strikes me is that as soon as it comes it goes and that's when the beauty starts. Everything comes to life. The earth is enlivened by the rain.
