The Rainy Affair!

I love thunderstorms

they reside within everyone

explosion

of suppressed strength

Fierce yet a boon

Nature’s fury,

Heaven’s love

for his soulmate earth,

a thick blanket of vaporized water

masking countless emotions

beneath myriad tints

of grey

when saturated

burst into crystals;

their thunderous growls

calm my heart.

Smudging the northern fringe

they rose

draping the gold with black,

concealing the lustrous gleams,

dark yet luminous

brightening my soul

with streaks of intermittent

silver lightning

along the rims

filling my heart with joy,

sizzling pavement

scorching earth

kissed by the first soft drop;

pitter-patter

they rattle and tumble.

Static broad trunk

but limbs swaying

wind rocking the grass and shrubs,

wafting autumn’s

final golden trace

everywhere…

crows ravens battling the gusts,

cackling, the kids enjoy

women scurrying

picking dry clothes from the terrace,

vacant streets, locked stores

scared folks, quaking vehicles;

terrified cattle galloping

towards the barn,

withered pastures

waiting for the greys

to embrace them.

I love thunderstorms

somehow I relate to them

brushing over

the emerald brine

swelling lofty curls,

raging ebbs of saltwater

lashing on the boulders

disintegrating,

eroding,

chattering with the

shattered gravel,

inspiring

each grain to transform

from Dust to a Pearl.💚
