TODAY -
First rain
Shahnaz Islam *
Through my window
I gaze at those golden haze
Dressed in pearl dews
Every morning.
And by noon
I know I have been hungry like a wolf
To smell the first rain for prey.
When touched the Earth
Droplets danced and made love
Like a maiden fallen for her Cupid
And stained their traces till dawn
Throughout the night.
