Night Rain......

Hours past midnight,
I still lay, wide awake,
when the world sleeps,
as if without any pain,
I see the stars twinkling bright,
as if, never before, as if, never again…

I look up into the sky,
I see the nature wave,
she winks at me
with a questioning glance,
as if asking me why,
as I waiting for a good time?
so that the creaking crickets
can sing me a sweet lullaby…

“No” I say, staring back at her,
with a very stubborn voice,
“you sing me a sweet lullaby,
with your pleasant rains..”

as if with a sigh, she grumbles,
and roar the mighty clouds in the sky,
down pouring comes the rain…
I put my hand out the window,
feeling the warmth in the rains cold,
with a child’s innocence, smiling at her,
and she smiles back at me,
as if a mother, playing with her child,
bending down on her knee…
