#156 The Rains...

Surrounded by the dusky green forest

the sound of a thousand butterflies

and a few from the family of

frogs and rabbits,

we were living in the jungle paradise

when the rains came crashing down..

Every droplet had to face the long

tree leaves first

before they could flood our lands,

almost like the flame of gas hitting

first the exterior

of the softer bacon inside,

it takes its time to reach us

giving us a fair warning

to make way into our homes

while filling our empty pots

and leaving us drenched in the feeling alone...
