I am really wet <br />the rain came in summer <br />when the heat was on <br />and my body ailed <br />with the inner dryness <br />I started ageing <br />for want of love <br />my hair greying <br />roots fraught with thoughts <br />and when I started sinking <br />with every dawn <br />difficult to wake up <br />my body from the frozen bed <br />when my limbs wont obey <br />orders of my brains <br />then, the rains came <br />out of nowhere <br />like an angelic beauty <br />the message of love <br />from the blues of skies <br />bulging clouds <br />blessing with drops <br />each drop <br />inhaled <br />perfuming me <br />with the scent of earth <br />Earth is wet <br />I too <br />she is ready to sprout <br />but I have to wait <br />her seeds come out fast <br />mine takes time to surface <br />my love implanted <br />I am pregnant <br />Yeah, I am pregnant <br />I want shout <br />in everybody's ears <br />lest they fail to hear <br />I am carrying <br />the baby of a Summer Rain <br />and I am not tired <br />I am full of richness <br />Creativity inside me <br />It is kidding me <br />yes, I am a Kid now <br />babying a Kid in my womb.<br /><br />lalitha iyer<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-am-really-wet/
