Baadlo se girte moti
aur mitti ki khushboo ki wo andheri shaam,
Dil me goonjte
purane gaano ki jhankaar ,
Kehne ko to har koi
uss pal me mausam ka deewana tha ,
par kitchen se nikle
garma garam chai aur pakodo se ,
maano Maa ne hamare haatho par
rakh diya duniya ka har khazana tha.-
झूमते सावन की वो मौसम की बारिश भीगी, भीगी सी तुम भीगे हम और वो नुककड़ का चाय पकोड़े का ठेला याद आता हैँ, तुम मायके क्यों चली जाती हो जब जब सावन आता हैँ

When I feel
The heavenly first drop of rain
On my face
Mixture of smiles and tears
Collab of excitement and depression
Ah! Feelings are such a mess
My soul dances to the rhythm of rain
With bubbles and puddles beside
With the smell of recently bathed soil
And with the droplets on the taro leaves
My thoughts are on roller coaster ride
After soaking in the pouring rain
I'm still thirsty
I want to hug the cold wind
Want to kiss each drop of rain
And to jump over the horizon
And my emotions
Though both are misty
Yes, I'm a Pluviophile
A bit strong a bit fragile-
I watch the bubbles
flow along rivulets
wondering where they would burst .
I wait for croaking of Frogs
and song of Crickets
having a merry time
celebrating the freshness
of the twilight . .
And
My heart desires to dance
to their tunes
while wishing for
some more pakodas
to go with my Chai . .

In the city: it starts raining.
Son: God, I wish it stops raining, so I can go home soon.
Daughter-in-law: This stupid rain, only comes, when I wash the clothes.
Grandson: yaay, mom it's raining, I'm going to play football!
Granddaughter: starts rhyming, raiiiinnn, raaiiiinnnn go awayyy, comee agaaiin annottherr dayyy...!
Far away in a village:
Farmer (Father & Grandpa): God, please let it rain, at least this year, the crops are dying and so am I, living alone, the crops are my only family, let it rain, God, please.
Far far away in heaven: God starts crying looking at the family, and it starts raining in the village.
Farmer: Thank you, God,
at least I can keep one family with me.-
When blowing wind makes sure that every single drop of the raining water comes to you and you feel the divinity flowing through yourself ❣

When it rains, I smell your love in the petrichor, and I see your tears of joy through the raindrops, and I wonder if you smell my memories in the petrichor and feel my tears of love in the raindrops, for you left me drench in the rain, alone, on the day we were dancing, together.

A Cup of coffee, Your cozy arms, a soothing rain...
An eternal peace-(happy couple)!
A barren land, your feeble hands, a survival rain..
An awful existence-(happy peasant)!

Perhaps, raindrops are tears of stars.
In space - stars were crying
looking down at the humans
destroying their mother earth.
On earth - humans were
cutting down the trees
and it started raining.
'looks like we don't need
trees for the rain to come',
they laughed at their own joke.-
