The Ravishing Rain

Drizzling, dazzling splinters of diamond           Shards of crystal or  liquidized glass!       Transparent drops from a translucent sky.        Ooh, that lucid lustre: No wonder they say, there's something sexy about the rain Atleast it does seem to drive       dripping lovers insane.        And then as if frenzied, suddenly excited the drizzle converts into a heavy downpour          as thunders bellow and thunders roar     as rivers swell and rivers soar. Rain battering our rooftop        like needless war drums or heedless bass drums      The heavens having opened to announce a cloud burst Till it's said to be raining cats and dogs or more realistically, fishes and frogs!             O' God bless the nimbus Those soaking cotton wool puffs in the sky Those candy floss rainclouds sailing by.
