The Encounter

T he sky was grey. Dark clouds closing in.Spreading like the kohl of her eyes from the previous night, after she cried.Her red swollen eyes reminding of the hues of the Sun seeking cover in the embrace of the dark clouds. The rumbling of clouds  like the drums playing, so passionately it strikes a lightning. The parched land below with slightly parted lips is anticipating for the first kiss. It awaits with eyes above, admiring her lover spreading its dark black, grey wings like an Eagle ready before the kill.The sky would create another symphony louder, ferocious and stronger.

The Sky looks at anticipating land beneath and his love breaks all barriers.

its raining......... zzzzzzzz......ya that's what my state of mind is for the past so many days. And i am being so lazy to pen down  my thoughts.there is so much in the mind but don't know where to start with. i guess that is what happens if you don't clean up regularly. So leaving the backlog of thoughts aside I must first confess that it is purely because of the rain and the awesome weather which has made me write again. There is something about the sound of clouds rumbling, the splattering of the drizzling, chirping of the happy birds and the occasional sound of  the wind chimes on my window.The ideal kind of weather for me to be in this happy and content state of mind. But often i wonder about this fascination for this kind of weather in a place of absolute plains.And the farthest   memory i hold is in my childhood, when i read this book set in an island where the protagonist lived in this bunglow which was amidst a big garden.the french windows had r...
