It rained after a long time
the perched earth relaxed
and smiled
and soaked all the water
that peeped in through the pores,
the soil was wet
and under a shade sat I
on an easy chair
looking at the moon
watching the clouds play
the sweet scent of jasmine
came in from the garden
the old gramophone played well,
notes of Tagore rang on my ears
all was at peace
the rhythm of life was back
aloud I cried
let it rain,
let it pore
let it soak all my soars
let it bring back what I had once lost
let time stop
for at last I did find you
at the corner of my heart
and my search for you was
complete.
