One Rainy Day

Through the window, I peeked out to see,

Trees were hailing, the wind was sailing with a pinch of mystique.

That silence was filled with sounds,

I was hearing them but I was still calm and bound.

The wind was talking, telling me to rest.

The trees were demanding for me to be my best.

I was listening to both of them with ease, 

The situation seemed to be debatable, but was directed indeed.

Very soon the rain started pouring,

And I switched myself from the window to the balcony.

The rain drops started converging point to point,

So my hands headed out.

To feel the drops on my palm like a touch of serenity,

I stood there like a kid with full enthusiasm and liberty.

Maybe I was sure of my self direction,

Maybe that moment made me me feel that connection.

Nevertheless I felt more alive,

I had a big smile.

I felt live a river,

Which finally got it's speed and can thrive forever.

Inner voices were calm and composed.

Heart was beating like a steady boat.

Mind was in the moment, feeling the novelty it got.

It seemed as if all three were on the same page,

Yet they had different paths,

That they completely forgot.

Individually they are pressing and profound.

Together they seemed and felt to be sound.

I was having this energy in me, 

I was having this togetherness with all three,

That I felt I can totally surmount.

Very soon the rain stopped pouring,

But I was still there leaning against the balcony wall.

The wind chyme was still making sounds,

And was clear enough to be recognised,

Because it was dominating the atmosphere around.

Water was there on the roads, terrace and trees.

Everything was wet but it seemed more lively indeed.

I was holding a cut of hot tea,

But somehow it wasn't getting cold.

Maybe it was trying to stand out,

To make the environment realise it's role.

Bit by bit everything was settling down.

The sun finally came out of the clouds,

Because the hide and seek ended,

And that was announced way too loud.

Everything went back to normal is what you guys will say,

But for me, that was normal,

And after was virtuality in place.
