The Rain

As the hot May winds blows through my hair,
Its sends a chill down my spine,
Leaves fall from the trees,
and the wind comes with heavy dark clouds

I see dark clouds,
and a gray sky
then a streak of lightening,
followed by
thunder clashes,
as lightening flashes
a storm rolls in,

The gentle cadence of falling rain
Its soft pelt splashing
upon the window pane
makes my heart miss a beat.

The golden sun is hidden away
with the gray clouds,
the rain falls on the earth,
like cyrstals falling from heaven above.

Making the earth so wet,
and the earth smelling so sweet.
Everything around turns wet and cold
And yet the rain is welcome on this
hot summers day!

We were rather quite and guess each lost in our own world. But all of a sudden he turned to me and said hey what are you thinking and it was that instant when I too turned and asked him the same question. Funny but we both smiled at one another and said nothing. We spoke for sometime and again the silence fell and we were again lost in...
