Poetry by Sourav RC.

Clouds were getting ready to shower this earth

I was waiting for the moment walking through the path

A spirit so dried out, kept its tired hope on the sky

Praying for a thunderstorm to end this spell of dry.

Then came the rain like a bunch of playful children

Lovingly embracing the mother earth with the strain

Wind was roaring and powering through the trees

Like a group of revolutionists, who got free without cease –

As I was enjoying this savage love, every drop of water

I surrendered myself to nature’s most gripping disaster.

    I like how you used rain as a symbol of love. Because when your in that season of waiting for love it does feel dry but thats why we have Jesus he is the big pack of water bottles you get from walmart until the rain comes :-)
