Showers before the monsoon

The sweet smell of the first shower
Feels like bliss.
Each little drop of water assures the hope in life.
The dark clouds along with the thunder,
Shows a sign of this beautiful wonder,
That even when we humans faulter
The Almighty cares for all creatures.

The children run out to play
To enjoy the mud and the puddles on the way.
Birds flap their wings and sing
A sign of gratitude to the heavens and swing.
There is a smile on every face that sees
And welcomes the first showers along with me.

The breeze  that moves
With the sweet smell of earth;
Awakens in every creature that breathes
The feeling of a next season to begin.
