The day's work was over

Fagged and wacked, I walked out of that multistoried posh tower

Dark clouds suddenly covered the sky and a lightning struck

And then there was this roaring thunder

A wind rushed blowing the sand

Those big drops of rain started falling from heaven

The leaves of those roadside plants, started blushing in joy

I spread my hands wide on either sides of my body

Raised it to keep it in line with my shoulders

My palms were facing upwards

I stretched them as though to capture all the rain drops

A deep breath escaped my nostrils

The damp air around cuddled my body, burning pinions of passion…
As I inhaled the intoxicating smell of the moist earth

Just receiving those big drops of water under my feet

The fresh wet n warm earthly aroma filled the air

I inhaled the alluring scent inside

It released a freshness that traversed to every cell of my body

I was taken to a mysterious state

I drew a line with my foot into the wet mud, curled my toes inwards

Taking mud between my toes

My eyes saw tantalizing beauty encapsulating me

There was so much to see, so much to feel and so much to enjoy

I closed my eyes, looked up and let out a breath

At that very moment, I felt the drops of rain on my face

Trickling down my skin onto my neck
My palm instantly wanted to capture the drops of water

I tried to hold them, but they trickled down between my fingers.

My clothes stuck to my body as if they were my skin

My wet body ran desires high, kindling intoxication

I could take no more,

It was magically euphoric moment

I opened my eyes a few minutes later,

There were more than a dozen people gaping at me from the parking lot

I kick started my two-wheeler and drove my way, bindas!

The rain had almost stopped when I reached home

I parked my two-wheeler and walked to a tree

Held its low lying branches strongly with my hands

And shook it to feel the remaining drops of the rain!!

It was again a magically euphoric moment
