It's raining!

One of my favorite things even as a child has been rains!
I love love love the smell of earth when the first drops of water seep into the earth,the clean air,the rainbow peeking out suddenly....................it feels like my soul is being cleansed!


It is especially delightful getting caught in the rains without an umbrella,standing under a bus shelter,a tree ,every inch of my skin soaking in the cold water!





There is a certain element of romance involved when you enjoy the rains with your partner!.................a cup of tea has never felt as divine as when shared with Someone Special on a rainy day



I somehow feel my association of romance with rains stems from a healthy dose of Hindi movie songs !
I can visualize a saree clad actress dripping to her bones gyrating with a dashing rogue to the beats of falling drops..........LOL............no kidding!

One of the most melodious,beautiful,graceful & yet sensuous songs of rain I have EVER seen is a song from a 1955 Hindi movie.............the lyrics literally mean


"We have fallen in love & acknowledged it too & yet why are our hearts scared to fall in love?.........my heart says the path of love is very difficult & I don't know where we will end up !"



Do you like rains too?................or I am the odd duck;)


It's raining right now & the water beating down on the window next to my desk inspired me to write this post:)
