Drop By Drop

The monsoon has come, its raining all day,

The sun is hidden, the sky is all gray,

The roads are clogged with water everywhere,

But people on the road is now so rare.

With an umbrella in hand and wearing rain gear,

We watched how the clouds momentarily disappear,

Then the thunder rumbled with all its might,

And it all goes dark with no source of light.

At school or home we would watch the rain showers,

These thunderstorms were a show of nature's powers

But this year's monsoon will be a little different,

Lesser umbrellas in sight due to less people in pavement,

The monsoon this time will only be a beauty to the eyes,

As we sit by the window looking at the skies,

Summer bids goodbye and monsoon does arrive,

The trees are merry and they feel more alive.
