.....As I stood on 83 Clarence street , waiting for my 194 bus , i noticed the faraway buildings looked hazier with every growing second... and before i could run under the building the rain drops had licked my pink converses . After a horrendous paper , even the rain didnt excite me , but then there was this gush of wind , which blew off the strands of hair from my face and i suddenly beautiful. I looked up from under the shelter of my black umbrella and the tall and very tall buildings looked beautiful . It was raining ...raining in the city . A different view , a different atmosphere. People hustling in formals from this side to that to avoid there perfectly pleated skirts and ironed shirts and perfectly smooth jackets.
The wind blew my hair again and i folded back my umbrella inside my bag ! I stared around me for watchers and i didnt find many people except for an old woman in a pink skirt and a young girl in her school dress. The rain literally tempted me...i just had to do it ...With all guts collected (this aint a movie scene so you just cant stand in middle of the road to get wet in the rain, and thus needs guts when others are watching) i put forward a step and yet another step till i was out under the clear sky and the big and small rain droplets kissed my face , and soon enough my face , and hair was washed , and it felt beautiful , i felt washed , washed off all that was happening in me , all that i wanted to throw away , the tall buildings amidst the black n blue sky looked down upon me and......and i suddenly saw that li'll school girl beside me grinning at me all wet.... i smiled back and there we were both drenching down , and that old lady smiling her heart out at us !!!
The wet road and the beautiful suddenly-brought-to-life leaves on the trees was the best ever i could see...it was marvelous.. and droplets cleaning me down !!!
Today it was rain , rain in the city , rain on the roads , rain on the leaves , rain on that old lady who wanted be a child again , rain on the school girl who wanted to jump on the water puddles.....It was Rain , RAIN IN THE CITY , RAIN ON ME !!
