Loneliness, you come to me <br />in my morning varandah and sipping tea <br />when after crushing summer <br />comes first the brave busy shower. <br /> <br />Stuck in your dripping arts <br />I lose <br />in a slow senseless gaze <br />all my parts- <br /> <br />whose filling hands <br />soaked me in - <br />and turned th rainfilled earth <br />brisk and green? <br /> <br />I hear me walking all in one, <br />hear me, walking in poetry alone <br />under th' gloom of swooping cloud <br />across th' edge of earth <br />wearing senses' fine shroud. <br /> <br />Hush! <br />loneliness comes like a single hum <br />and waterdrops drum <br />the first fall of love- <br />and fills millions of chasms <br /> with life's one bold rub <br />of blood, of sudden spark and shiver <br />Rain with all loneliness, has come a giver. <br /> <br />Bury me in your moist shadow <br />where the distant deeps of sky <br />makes a humble bow- <br />in oneness of sound and gaze <br />they put me ever in a lonely cage. <br /> <br />It gives me meaning to be lonely now <br />to ride over th' cloud's sad hump <br />and precisely allow <br />me to lose my all - <br /> <br />I know, <br />like the last brown leaf <br />somewhere on th' way the saddest fall <br />left me battered though, <br /> <br />I have never enjoyed <br />so much my lonely feet <br />as in the newly ploughed sky <br />of rainy thoughts <br />where a vision I meet - <br /> <br />some loneliness <br />a lovely salvage always- <br />keeps no pain <br />some loneliness <br />from the wisest rain <br />flies me out <br />in an alluring sky <br />where the contemplate lurk <br />sings deep to get it by.<br /><br />Rites Ghosh<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/rain-keep-me-lonely/
