The little buds Soon to wither Not wanting to die pitifully On such a sunny day Under the scorching heat Prayed for some rain
And it began to rain With the still bright day Painted a beautiful picture
Drizzles tickled each of the bud Teased to flaunt their beauty It rained gently Enough to water the land Make the flowers bloom To a magnanimous sight
Thought it was just a soft pour For a brief moment Of joy... Of fulfillment... So they prayed for the rain To stay for a while more
And so the rain did stay But then never leave For a long time
Just like of a storm Each of its drop Now hurts the flowers Heavy fall tears them apart Every time the rain Touches the land Flowers got more drenched Soon they will drown And get washed away
Yet they smile One by one As they face their end They glint a smile
[Cab Chronicles, I] Some time in the end of Feb 2018, while travelling to work in a cab, rain started to pour and drops touched the window... and this poem was born.
