Month: June 2020

Pitter-patter goes the rain

Against my windowpane

Children run around playing

“Lets go out and play!” They’re saying

Rain oh rain, you’re earth’s best friend

To the harsh heat you put an end

Flowers bloom,

And you take away the gloom!

The first shower brings joy and happiness

In each droplet of rain is nature’s finesse

You bring out the inner kid in every elder

The old river roars in her splendor

Grass and trees meet their life-giver

Overjoyed is the dried up river

The sounds of splashing,

Squelching and of joy sheer

Tell me that the first shower is here!

I tell the world I sing a song

I’m cheerful since the rain came along

The long awaited rain has come

Filling all craters and chasms

The dust has settled, the cool breeze blows

The tree is smiling and the leaf glows

The sun is out, the sky is blue

The blinding rays have no clue

There is a joyous feel in the atmosphere

The people around don’t know fear

The scent of mother Earth crawls up our noses

It creates an aura of sweet, little dozes

The kids play out in puddles

Laughing and blowing bubbles

The temperature has dropped, sweat has perished

The plants are swaying and the flowers have flourished

The first showers have cleaned our souls

Making us content but wetting our soles.

On the first rainy day the rain whispered to me,

“On this rainy day would you join me for tea?”

I said, “no you ruined my day.”

Drip, drip, drip

I heard it cry.

I felt sorry and gave a sigh,

I stopped it and said,

Sorry, you can continue.

Filled with happiness again,

It drummed a beat.

For several hours it continued,

And said now my wish is complete.

I said, “I wish I could be like you, enjoying in every situation. ”

It said, ” You are my inspiration for it! “

A drop of rain is like a sudden knock at the door.

Unexpected, yet often welcomed with smile and much more.

 

It can brighten your day making you cheery or ruin your plans making you mad.

It can make you laugh or make you sad.

 

Whether the raindrop is moving fast or slow, or is big or small.

It always gets everyone’s attention and all.

 

A raindrop contains many secrets.

It is a bubble of anticipation and the surprise it recreates.

 

It cleans the earth, feeds the flowers and fills the holes.

The raindrop is never silent, it bangs on roofs, spatters on windows, splashes into puddles, or wets some poles.

I can talk to pets.

Whether dogs or cats or cows or monkeys,

I can talk to all counting camels and donkeys!

 

I can talk to pets.

Ducks quack, dogs bark, cows moo.

But they have feelings too!

 

I can talk to pets.

A street dog wants a master,

Someone to play with, someone who runs faster!

 

I can talk to pets.

A cat wants to be raised too.

She wants shelter, food, and water, just like you!

 

I can talk to pets.

A rabbit doesn’t want to eat carrot anymore,

It wants pudding, cake and a little apple juice it adores !

 

I can talk to pets.

Whether dogs or cats or cows or monkeys,

I can talk to all counting camels and donkeys!

(Note: This poem talks about the beauty of life in contrasting situations. The dark side is beautiful too and the beautiful side is dark too. So there is beauty in everything. Loving yourself as you are is the main message of the poem.)

 

A pastel sky, tinted in blue

A turquoise sea, right in front of you.

The gentle waves tickle your feet,

Washing away the agony from underneath.

 

The sun rays brushing your skin

Your hair dancing with the wind.

Both the elements with a contrasting tint

Just how your life has been.

 

The ocean exhibits the dark times,

Moments of the blue devils in your life.

But the marine life is exquisite too

There is always a blaze burning in you.

 

The sky manifests the vivid times,

Moments of peace in your life.

But the sky gets dark too,

When Luna touches the heavens.

 

Life is full of contrary emotions

My heart lies with the ocean.

Find beauty in everything

And love the life you’ve been living.

 

I open my eyes to see the twilight

Have you seen the ocean glow in the night?

The elements switch their prior tint

Just like how your life has been.

The small joys of life we always miss out,

Feeling sad for an unhappy life makes us pout.

 

The colours know a way to freshen our mood,

That’s how the small joys are viewed.

 

Pink represents friendship and peace,

And also shows that sugar and spice, everything is nice.

 

Energy and determination are expressed in red,

It also shows the anger in one’s head.

 

The violet colour is perfect for me,

It shows creativity, imagination and royalty.

 

Blue is the colour of the sky and the sea,

It symbolises trust and loyalty.

 

Black colour is full of mystery,

It sometimes means fear and sometimes authority.

 

The colour of life is green,

It gives freshness, safety and makes me feel like a queen.

 

White is considered the purest of all,

It proves innocence, goodness and not makes us feel small.

 

These colours make us feel alive,

And tell us that it is worth to strive.

The colors in life give happiness to all,

They pick us up when we fall

With the color purple in life

There is never pain and strife

Violet paint is nice

Always worth the price

Color blue paints the sky

Smiling from up high

Green gives peace to eyes

Makes us pure and wise

Yellow is sour and sweet

Just like a pineapple piece

The energizing color orange

Is as good as an orange

To some red means anger

But to me it doesn’t mean danger

If you want to take away misery

Colors will show you the way to victory !!!
