The sun comes out grinning widely
This is the time of the year when the
Sun is as generous as the right hand
It is a time when the sun is out, giving
The best of his shining all day long
Making a show of his magnanimity
Till the land is parched and cracked
From being pampered relentlessly
And till the trees and the grass
Are baked and scorched thoroughly
Till everybody is sweating and panting
Under the glare of the shiny sun
Till the awestruck world is left marveling
For the summer knows no bounds
The clouds come in, not wanting to be
Outdone, they bring in their own
Show of generosity to the summer
Accompanied by thundering storms
Going about dishing out shiny packages
Of rains with reckless abandon
Till the trees and the grass are as green
As the beauty of a brand new birth
Till the rivers are tickled so much that
The water they carry spills over the rims
Till the land turns to porridge and
Everyone is drenched to the bone
Till the awestruck world is left marveling
For the summer knows no bounds
The sun smiles from ear to ear and the clouds give their all.
