Monsoon Diaries

Waking up to the alarm of pitter-patter

And the aroma of petrichor.

I wondered if the monsoon had

A calendar of some sort.

.

Oh! How could the rain know,

When the school would reopen?

As it starts on the day

In June, when the schools opened.

.

Forget the day and date,

The rains seem to know,

The time we would start to school

And start back home too.

.

Wading through the puddles,

Guarding the new bag and uniform,

It was indeed an uphill task,

To travel during downpour.

.

The pride of having the

Trendiest umbrella of the lot

And showing it off to friends,

Oh!! What a feel it was!!!

.

Days flew by and

The times have changed,

But the love for monsoon

Will never ever fade.
