The rains battered them blue In the last few days! The crimson was lost To marshy greens; How Nature had lost its sheen! The sunshine glows today After a week-long rain, A delight, a relief From the soggy pain! Nature jostled for an existence, The fight was between The Sun God and the God of Rains: Today, the sun glistens in gold, Only joy and bright happiness On Earth reigns! (Selected by Biraj Dixit) ■
