I listen to the rains
A splash on the street
A plonk on the leaf
A trickle down the bark
Tap dance on the roof
Umbrellas wade by
A paper boat glides
A half open bud
With a moist blush
Sequins on the stem
Like stars they gleam
A pause … a hush
Then a sudden slush
A rhyme a rhythm
Just there…now it isn’t
Clouds hang low
A misty wind blows
I inhale the petrichor
A wee little more
The wetness the romance
Let the world freeze
In this serene stance
A wisp of a song
Breeze carries along
No hurry … No rush
Hold the fracas
Just Enjoy and groove
With all your heart
As God’s fingers play
The symphony of
Mozart

Wah re wah! GC,
Your rain came alive in words,
So vivid I almost looked up—
just to check
if my ceiling was leaking. 😄😂

Thank you, Geeta, for the beautifully visual poem, and especially your mention of Mozart’s music being played by the hand of God, as this is what many listeners experience.
