My Legs going round and round, <br />Resting over the pedals of my cycle, <br />As I rode through the silent lane- with <br />My friend by my side cycling equally well; <br />Blabbering a lot with her; <br />Looking up at the plain azure sky, <br />I lost myself in reverie. <br />Cool breeze gently broke from behind, <br />Pushing me forward, <br />Of course helping me in other way; <br />We rode past milestones- but <br />I never realized how soon the clouds appeared robbing off <br />The plain beauty of sky-until, <br />The first droplet fell on my eyelid. <br />Quivering my eyelid in surprise, <br />I glanced back at the sky-but <br />Droplets dropped down one by one, <br />It penetrated through the cotton threads, <br />Touching my skin-rousing <br />The hidden romance within me; <br />Excitement running through my nerves <br />By that time I realized that, <br />Mother Nature had bathed me with her gentle love, <br />My clothes stuck to my body- thereby, <br />Made me to move faster- but <br />I couldn’t, as my mind implored me to stay back. <br />Taking a short break, by the wayside temple, <br />I stood with my friend, enjoying the coolness-of <br />Water droplets trickling inside, <br />Through the side of the sliding roof-and <br />The little pores, allowing the droplets to sneak in. <br />One by one the vehicles and people made entry, <br />Turning the temple as a parking zone; <br />Congestion has to be avoided – we thought, <br />Soused in rain we took off again, <br />Reached home within few minutes; <br />Drying our clothes and having some hot drink, <br />I lied down immersed in nature’s love.<br /><br />Jusline Zachariah<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/droplets-2/
