POWER OF A DROP

M

​                                        

Whether in Texas or in Mumbai the life sustaning force ‘THE WATER‘ has proved that excess of anything is bad.  When the nature unleashes it’s fury we are helpless like any other being.

 
 Drop by drop it gentle come from up above,

                   Falls on the upturned face, the open hands

                   Brings a smile of pure joy,

                   A few on the surface of the earth,

                   Instantly fills the air with aroma of soil.

                    

When drops come hand-in-hand,

Pouring down without a break,

The children enjoy the paper sails,

The grown-ups enjoy hot tea break,

The trees and grass soak in it’s wake.

                A few hours of downpour is a good fortune,

                Cleansing the air around us,

                The rivers, the steams ,the water-falls,

                Welcome it with open arms,

               The farmers breath a sigh of relief,

                Even the birds sing and dance to it’s tune.

                 
But when they run towards the mother earth,

Hour on hour with a vigour of it’s own,

Creating the havoc and the  chaos,

Life come to a total stand still

But Nature knows better than us,

 May be This is what might be good for us?

  1. This is very timely. Hurricane Harvey hit the Gulf Coast of the United State last week and the flooding in Texas and Louisiana has been very bad. We are going to get the remnants this weekend where I live in Virginia but nobody is predicting floods up here. Lovely poem and pictures. Thanks for sharing.
