Rain

Sitting on my terrace yesterday night, looking at the stars I was trying to find something, I don’t know what. There’s for sure a big disadvantage of living in a fully equipped metropolitan city, it’s rare to see stars in the sky over here. Although the metrical composition of “twinkle twinkle little stars” is the same even after so many years. I wonder how the parents here explain to their kids what stars really are. when they themselves can’t see one. The time is not far when stars would become part of our history books.


Thinking about all this suddenly a gust of wind passed by as if trying to say something and all of the sudden the mood changed and then came the rain. Although the amount of rain may have altered today, its magical passion remains the same. The earthly smell goes deep down your nerve enthralling all your senses. The moment the raindrops leave their sacred space finding a way to the burning earth, touching every soul and life, fortifying the parched hearts. These tiny beads create the same feeling of enchantment today that they must have done thousands of years ago.



Looking around I saw the trees dancing with the merriment and delight of God’s only gift they receive. I heard the thunderclap roaring at its highest pitch as if trying to convey that the party is yet to begin dear!. A few more seconds and then mother nature began her spell works. As the first drop touched my body, fluttering my soul, gave feeling like my preserver kissed my forehead, blessing me with a thousand benedictions. I felt exuberant, all at once my problems and anxiety were taken away, I felt alive!.


Stretching my arms wide open to embrace all the thousands and millions of hugs that were bestowed upon me I heard the blessing that nature whispered under my ears. The elation inside me was so high that I shouted out of joy and gave a shrieking laugh, thinking how a small moment can leave me awestruck and spellbound creating a magical effect. Every pore of my body felt renewed as if I was born again from the very womb of nature completely revived.


Someone great said that “change is necessary for life”. I agree it is but to some extent. Change should be in terms of thinking, acceptability, course and way of living. The alteration in the pattern of working of nature is really not necessary. Nature has its own way out for one thing or the other, our part is only to preserve its bounty and in return accept the abundant blessings that it showers on us. Thinking all this as it stopped raining and then appeared the only star visible in the sky. I made a promise to me and to the star up there, that I’ll do whatever it takes on my part to preserve the mother nature in return of the unrestrained blessings I receive from her every now and then.
