The almond pearls bounce on the leaves, Drip to drench me with the heavenly boon, What magical transformation the sky weaves, Its wands of clouds creating another monsoon! There's though a different spell on the ground Where water flows like a river in high tide, Silence broken only by a splashing sound Monstrous holes yawning on all side! You longed for it in the summer's pain Hallucinating in agony the coming of it You curse it now calling it a bane As it pours from above and deluge the street!
