Welcome overcast sky

from incessant heat

 

Drizzle gently falling

on freshly wet street

 

Feel is overwhelming

for indolence to set

 

With drop in mercury

and in rain to get wet

 

Odd for time of year

coming event it tells

 

Rains not lot farther

quelling of arid spells

 

Sprung as a surprise

catching all unaware

 

Speeding all measures  

and tiles on roof repair

 

Trees washed afresh

of old residual grime

 

To stand tall yet again

with reinstated prime

 

Precursor to impending

 bucketing times ahead

 

Fury of the monsoons

that all seem to dread
