A Picture of the Rain


This time of year in Kerala we enjoy this amazing pre-monsson rain which comes as boon in the summer heat.

Today I was travelling by bus to my home and I happened to look out of the window.  The pre-monsoon was at its work in the sky afar. Dark clouds rolling in with layer over layer presented a sight second to none. Soon my mind started soaring among those clouds and lost myself in its rain droplets.

A cool breeze might have brought a smile to my face. That might have been the reason someone sitting near me wondered what I was smiling for and brought me right back to the ground.

How in the world will I be able to explain what I saw in that picture painted by the almighty in a million shades of grey and blue in mere words ? I shrugged and blanked, "Nothing."
