WEN RAINDROPS MET AND KISSED THE CITY

 

IT HAS BEEN A LONG ETERNAL WAIT

 

AS DAYS PASSED BY PEOPLE STARTED TO REGRET

 

LIFE IN THE CITY WAS LEFT AT THE MERCY OF CRUEL FATE

 

HEAT AND HUMIDITY CONTINUED 2 DRENCH PEOPLE IN THEIR OWN SWEAT

 

CITY OF JOY MISSED THE SEASON WHICH HAPPENED 2 BE COOL AND WET

 

WITH EVER RISING MERCURY AND FAILING MONSOON XPECTATIONS TURNED GLUM

 

LITTLE DID THE CITY KNOW THERE WAS MORE TO COME

 

WHILE NATURE CONTINUED TO BURN UNDER THIS GROWING HEAT

 

OUR VERY OWN CITY OF JOY TOOK A DENGUE HIT

 

WHILE MANMADE GADGETS FAILED TO PROVIDE RELIEF FROM THIS BURNING

 

UP ABOVE THE RAIN GODS PLAYING PRANKS WERE NOT AVERSE TO THE YEARNING

 

FINALLY SKIES SHED THE BLUES AND DRESSED THEMSELVES IN SMOKY GREY

 

CLOUDS THUNDERED AND CLAPPED IN UNISION SHOWING HOW HAPPY WERE THEY

 

AT THE SIGHT OF RAINDROPS EMBRACING ITS JILTED LOVER AND PLANTING KISSES , MAKING ITS BELOVED WET TODAY
