Walking in the rain

Walking in the rain, I like the best
though some may always detest
for its cool contact invariably
rejuvenates me like the bubbly.

It is the nature's way of baptizing
the world with the welcome shower
(Like John on the banks of Jordan)
and make the prophecy true
"be fruitful and multiply"
To bless the living and the earth.

It is the nature's way of worshipping
a pleasant smell wafts all around
Is it sweet smell of sigh of earth?
Are the magis of yore coming again
carrying Sandal and myrrh?
To pay homage to the Mother earth.

It is the nature's way of honoring
for the droplets glistening like pearls
gathered in an invisible string
waiting to adorn the neck
(amidst excited cries of parched population)
of the Immaculate mother, the earth.

It is the nature's way of beautifying
On this happy and glorious occasion
when the dried epidermis of Earth
is moisturized through
the natural water a la olay!
turning her into a sprightly maiden!!

It is the nature's way of  amazing
For turning the brown countryside
Into a velvety green sheath
even the bone-dry wood starts
throwing shoots breaking
their season long hibernation.

It is the Nature's Way of
showing Mercy and Power
How different is a man to
loathe walking in the rain.

Enjoy the mercy. Respect the power.

..he will come to us like the winter rains,
like the spring rains that water the earth.   
(Hosea 5:15-6:3)
