An untimely torrent
leaks
Like a tip toe
foe at night
It spoils an
innocent slumber
A helpless flutter
in the nest
When the dreams
had basked
A hopeful eye
on their hatching
Has woven many
a happy chirp
Now these swarming
grey clouds
The peril of
thundering tempest
Eager to capsize the rocking cradle
How to desert
the impregnated dreams
And how to fly
away in the storm
How to stay in
the vacillating nest
Only to await
the demise of hope
This untimely
torrent is an ambush
Of an overpowering
adversary
An opportunity
to prove the grit
When it is easier
to surrender
Enduring with
no choice at disposal
Till either the rain or we last.
On flight to
Mumbai
