Sing a rain song...

Hold me,
Twirl those arms around my waist.
Tap your feet to the symphony,
Kiss me gently on my face.

Our senses will fade a little,
As we'll step into trance.
With lips interlocked,
Heart doing a happy dance.

Coloring me all red,
Heat in the body will flow.
Transporting me to a far off land,
With fine wine and French chateau.

Wait a bit longer,
Let's not rush.
With rain steaming my body,
I can never have enough.

There has to be something first,
Something that never goes wrong.
Rain, kiss, love, passion,
And a rain song.

So, what's your favorite rain song? Here's mine ~

  5. Although I'm not a big fan of rain songs because the roads get all clogged up and hence you aren't left with many spaces to embrace your beloved, which I don't have even otherwise. But this eclogue had a perfect rendition and made me enjoy the rains even without being in them. :)

  10. Ur poem is as sizzling as the Bollywood song i must say. i guess prolly it's my age or else i would've said i like Saawan ke jhoolay paday as my fav or Rhimjhim ghire sawaan but these days when it rains the song that always comes to my mind is that one from the movie Junoon (1978) Ghir aayee kaali ghataa matwaali saawan kee aayee bahaar re saawan kee aayee bahhar re, bela chameli kee kaliyaan mehak gayee, bela chameli....heck i started off. It was sung by Preeti Saagar i suppose . Cheers to monsoon and by saying this i am beckoning it to come and start raining in Delhi...:)
    Btw the one that Bikram shared is also another one Woh kagaz kee kashti woh baarish ka paani....hahahaha i guess humari umara mein aisa hee hota hai shayad hahahaha :) :) :)

Being Human

Under the roof of winter, Latches of my door open without making a sound. It's cold out there, Someone lost his ground. My soul shivers, Not that I'm cold. Someone from my land, Sleeps under the bridge while dreaming of gold. How can I... tuck myself in the quilt? When the winter storm is blowing, Hopes they have built. I have to get up, Do something... Before I start questioning who am I? And, they start saying...'Humanity dies.' Let's work out something, Take a resolution. Walk across all kinds of bridges, And, just be human... From centuries people are migrating for work or for better opportunities. But, not everyone has a smooth sailing...some live under miserable conditions. Most heart wrenching fact is nobody helps them, not even people from their own countries. I know, everybody is busy chasing the bigger purpose of life. But don't you think we should help people in need? Let's try to be better human being...

I Am Not Alone

Last year blessed me, He walked silently into my life. It was Love, That took me in its stride. One evening we walked holding hands, Then, I told him what I felt in heart. He said we were one soul, Who were living in parts. To bring the parts together, We fought with the world and tied the knot. Being one soul, Gave life a whole new spot. Chirping birds, floating clouds, Nature conspired for us. Always swimming against the tide, Life was in an adrenaline rush. This year cursed me, He walked silently out of my life. It was Death, That took him in its stride.       Yesterday his soul was saying, Fearing memories will fade, he can’t move on. He will stay and admire me, Standing always by my side from dusk to dawn.

Rewind - September 2023

 I wrote the following in September. Sometimes, I feel I will forget the art of writing couplets because I am not writing at all this year. I strongly believe you have to practice to hone your craft. And I am not doing that. Perhaps I schedule a time to write a poem. Or I need better time management skills. Date Published 09/05/2023 मुझे उसके जाने का इतना अफ़सोस नहीं हुआ  जितना इस बात का कि इतने सालों तक उसे रहने ही क्यों दिया  Love, Saru
