Felt so complete soaking in the rain
Felt no sorrow, no pain
It may give me a cold but I don't care
There's a calming sensation from grass to air
The feeling of love I don't have, I will gain
Because my heart falls open as I stand in the rain
The earth smelled of fresh, wet mud,
The leaves danced in the downpour, blushing green
I raised my face heavenwards
The giant shower and gusty winds
Descended thunderously
To quench a parched city's thirst
To give hope and re birth
To know happiness abound
Today, it rained

I totally empathize with this post. There is something so magical about the first rains:) Makes you want to fall in love and get all romantic all over again:)
I love the rain, the way the earth smells, getting soaked to the bone. Mmm. Lovely.
The quality of mercy has been likened to this gentle rain, and it sure is a welcome relief!!!
Very sensitive and nice Meenakshi

Isn't there something about the first rains, that evokes poetry and soft feelings in all of us?:) Kya baat kya baat kya baat;)
I see all of you going weak kneed by the rains in Bombay. My bad luck, I missed it, been raining hard eh?:)

We on the other hand are having fleeting rains and more sunshine, so not complaints:)
What a lovely read. First rains do evoke a sense of happiness indeed. Now that the rains are full scale here, I hope you are doing ok?:)
I always felt rain was wonderful, so musical and refreshing.
Every rain drop that touches the ground feeds new life to every living being. And you feel earth laughing with joy.
I can never forget how I loved to walk in the rain, among the trees, on wet grass with my friends around. Rain drops soaking us all.
Tiny water drops against my cheeks, cold wet breeze brushing
against the eyes. Then I would close my eyes and turn up to breath the fresh air.
Almost, feeling so light, like a flower floating in the wind. Felt
like I could fly.
It reminds me of the days I spent in my school. It reminded me the first time I ever fell in love.
It reminds me of the university of life.
I am almost smiling now while writing this note. Unknowingly
How far have I traveled, while sitting in my office room, waiting for the next meeting to start? I have traveled far in to the past across the time, in my imaginations. To that past, when life used to be so
light, free and wonderful.
It's amazing to think how limitless our imagination can be. Thanks Mee for making this brief interlude so memorable:)
