Rest

Just before the rains,

the earth cracks,

everything’s dried up..

The heat..

Dryness and dead leaves..

Nature looks all shriveled and tired..

And then the rains..

Greenness everywhere..

Nature seems alive, full of life..

And the cycle of seasons repeats..

Don’t we go through the same too?

Some days, too tired,

like the dryness and dead leaves,

feeling too weary of everything and everyone..

And a little bit of rest,

solitude and serenity,

like when it rains, so refreshing..

The heat, weariness, tiredness,

everything washed away..

The heart rejoices in the peacefulness,

like Nature and earth rejoicing as it rains..
