A Rainy Day

A peaceful moment during a rainy afternoon.

As I look out my window on this rainy day, I find myself mesmerised by the wonderful things happening outside. The rain is pouring down, and it's turning the world into a beautiful sight.

The sound of the raindrops is like a soothing song, making me feel calm and peaceful. The air is cooler and fresher, and it feels like the whole world has been cleaned. It’s as if the earth is smiling, washed anew with nature’s gentle touch.

The plants and trees are drinking up the rain, and their leaves are sparkling in the light. It's like a beautiful show of colors as the raindrops reflect the fading sunlight. Even the streets look polished, like a mirror to the sky above.

I watch as the children laugh and splash in puddles. Their joy is pure. The older people gaze from their porches, perhaps thinking back to their own childhood. The women rush to the rooftops to gather laundry. It’s a blend of chaos and harmony.

When the thunder rolls and lightning strikes, it reminds me of how powerful nature is. But it’s not scary — it’s awe-inspiring. It’s like the sky is speaking through rumbling clouds and flashing light.

Finally, as the rain slows and the rainbow arcs across the sky, I feel lucky to witness this moment. The smell of the wet earth, the beauty in every drop — it all makes me grateful. I may not be a poet, but days like this write poems into the heart.
