dance of the fairies....

started raining today, and i went and enjoyed it outside after a really long time. i had been watchin the familiar shadow of the monsoon clouds through my window.... when i heard the thunder and the pitter-patter of raindrops outside my window... i decided to go outside and have a look. i had forgotten how much i love sitting out watching the rain..... how much i love the rainy season. i don't know perhaps its because i was born during this season. but i have always loved this season. its the time of the year when even a generally drab looking grey color looks appealing and takes on a delicate silverish hue.
it ws one of those day's when the wind had decided to make the most of it. it was blowing all over the place making the rain dance with it......... and then came that most divine fragrance of all......... of wet earth... taking over everything. as it started to pour.... the trees started dancing with the rain and the wind to the beat of thunder...and i sat there dumbstruck wondering why i missed out on all this for so long..........
the gulmohar looks especially enchanting in this scenario..... set ablaze with its flaming orange-red blossoms on the top. suddenly the thunder raored,the wind took speed..... and against the the beautiful silver-grey of the sky... the feiry red petals of the gulmohar took flight. little red glistening petals on fire, dancing with the rain. what a sight!!! seems the whole atmosphere got to them and they just couldn't hold on anymore..... floating and frolicking around with the wind aware of all there splendour...as the petals dance about in the rain i'am reminded of fairies and sprites....dancing and flitting about in the rain......with not a care in the world.... teasing the trees below them....... and the trees a lovely bright green ... as if jealous of the little spirits playing around in the rain....... swinging their branches........... yet unaware of their own elegant charm that is so calm and tranquil. . nature showing off in all her beauty and glamour....
that's romance..............
