Oh! I love the music of the Raindrops on the window pane..........

Oh! I love the music of the raindrops on the window pane
The sound of the leaves swaying in its trail
The dull grey sky celebrates as it pours its waters
 And teases the fierce wind that chatters

The rains brings cheer and everything looks clean
The lively bean dazzles and the glass doors gleam
While the birds preen their feathers
And the dogs choose to snuggle
It’s time for some hot coffee and a nice book to smuggle

Old memories come rushing with every drizzle
The first romance, as if engraved with a chisel
The rain gods had cried and the thunder had roared
When the naive heart had broken and the dreams soured

The summer has ended and the dusty days are gone
Bring out the paper boats and lead them along
Splashing into the puddles as we break into a song
Bring out the child in you; it will do you no wrong..........

The rain gods were angry on a particular day
And while the innocent children were playing away
The rivers soared and boulders betrayed
The path of many a pilgrim lay strayed

It sometimes hurts and there is pain
Every time I hear the raindrops on the window pane.....
Houses were broken and lives were lost
The cries for help all exhaust

Everyone cried out in despair
Rich or poor, no one was spared
For nature has not learnt to discriminate
All races and colors met the same fate

Yet, I continue to love the rain
For if we had not messed up
 We would not be in pain
We had ignored the writing on the wall
And today we pay the price of it all.
