Not always will rains evoke a beautiful feeling
A different kind of Rain
Raindrops drip from the ceiling
Collect in utensils
Of different sizes and shapes
Scattered all over the house
Yet many run in tiny streams
All over the floor
Over tired walls
Of a gloomy house
The rains outside
Flow on the road in streams
Travelling to distant rivers and fields
But raindrops entering the house
Soak the blankets
Already moist
With unending drought
Of hopes and dreams

A very vividly painted scenario Shashi. It happened to us on a monsoon many years ago. Every roof in the house was leaking and all the buckets and utensils were employed to catch the drip. A very long rainy season and lots of flooding in the country.
That’s the scenario in many houses even now in most countries.
Unfortunately.
This is intense, Shashi. Well written!
