Night piece~

This post has been published by me as a part of Blog-a-Ton 55; the fifty-fifth edition of the online marathon of Bloggers; where we decide and we write. In association with ​Rashmi Kumar, the author of Hooked, Lined and Single and Jyoti Arora, the author of Lemon Girl. . 

Rain
Torrential.
Dropping in sheets,
surge endlessly   
On a concreted courtyard

A wind alights on the space
     runs down in the middle
creating a mirror like dais
       for the tinkling ankles
           of the dancing peacocks
The beat for joy is what life seeks...

The sharp raindrops, 
         like meteorites keep
slashing, romping around...
    till they break an ephemeral rainbow 
And then, the peacocks emerge...
    Dancing, twirling in wet droplets
             with outspread resplendent plumes 
       Oh,the dizzying glitz of showbiz
           so winsome, so endearing 
    ...those manicured feet
swaying to the sounds 
    of tinkling raindrops 
   solemnize the feast
    -the afterbirth of cumulus
in this season of love 
Imbues breaths....
