Monsoon Arrival

 cropped-nov13-123.jpg

Grey dusty days washed clear away,

clouds collide, rivers rise,

dawn-birds praise fresh-rinsed blue skies.

 

Crisp emerald leaves emerge complete,

puddles pool, paddies flood,

seeds burst deep in fertile mud.

 

Birds-eye view, when Noah’s doves flew;

blinking ponds, steaming warmth,

delta’s heartbeat to monsoon storms.

 

Chapai Nawabganj, 2015
