The rain



The rain nudely trickles down beneath the sky
It plays pianos of love in the green garden of dreams
Sometimes,it bereavedly,losing itself,falls in the dark paths of misery
Sometimes it crackles like my words,roars like my lamentation.
(Who is sounding the big drum of misery in the pain-stricken moments,
in the shadowy eves?)
Long ago ,in the footpaths of my life,
Under the torn umbrella of my orphaned boyhood
It drizzled as tears.
In my passionate ,timid youth -dream
It spreaded down as love music
And today ,it drips as consolation- music on the unseen emberheap
of my heart.
Remotely in the dale of death ,
Rain spreads like the sound of departed soul of memory
