Rain O' Dear O' Lovely Rain Poem by Jameel Ahmed Ansari

Rain O’ dear O’ lovely rain,
The moment you touched the thirsty grains,
You spread joy in the entire terrain,
You made sure our prayers dint go in vain.

The sun's got silent,
The clouds have come into action,
The thunder has become lively,
The lightening has struck ferociously.

Rain O’ dear O’ eternal rain,
You've given us relief 4rm the scorching heat,
Our hearts have filled with joy again,
You have given hopes of a cool retreat.

The birds have started quenching their thirst.
The peacock has begun to spread her majestic colors,
Your sudden downpour has surprised the animals,
They seem to have got back their true colors.

You have made the drooping trees stand again,
Your droplets have caused flowers bloom again,
The sudden splash has given life to the sleeping buds,
The dead garden has started dancing in rain.

You’ve restored the lives of the marooned farmers,
Suicide is no longer an option for them,
Drought now plans to bid adieu,
The seeds can now sleep in water again.

The cruel sun tries to find an opening,
The clouds mischievously play hide and seek with him,
The sky tries to turn blue,
The clouds turn it black and grey.

The season of loosing umbrellas has come,
The irritating croak of toads has begun,
The narrow lanes have turned into mud pools,
The dry ponds are filled with water again.

The pain of going to school on a rainy day,
The joy of going back home early on a rainy day,
The intentional jumping on stagnant water,
Can we ever forget those rainy days?

Rain O’ dear O’ dearest rain,
Come soon next year again,
Drench this thirsty earth again,
Make these earth the next heaven.
