The Onset Of Monsoon


The "rain" had always been an integral part of me, irrespective of my age or rather to give a better perspective, the phases of life I have been through from the very childhood..And today quite a coincidence though now i am completely drenched in it. I will be using rain as a metaphor in this piece of writing as in the case of the legendary movie "Thoovanathumbigal" penned by the maestro -Padmarajan. I owe him now for creating a such a comprehensive realm which have paved the way for people like me to have an introspection on myself-Why the rain have suddenly turned out to be a synonymn of my love/my soul/my self????? It's the essence which rains create that makes you fall in love with it. Whether it's the smell of the first rains that seduces you to pour out your heart's hidden desires for your loved one or makes you take that pen to paper to express unsaid feelings in a poem or unleash your passion on the canvas with colours reflecting the vivid moods the rains get you into. I have used poem there as its a better icing on the cake whereas a blog isn't. I would rather have been a poet to pen down odes with rains as the backdrop. Okkey now...Enough of all those gimmicks..Back to my business now..Let me be precise with the dates...15/09/2014...The onset of monsoon in my life...When the nature has bid adieu to its monsoon season here, Sandeep has suddenly found his own "rain" and unlike the former one, it is not seasonal but eternal. And yes it was the same day which triggered my monsoon (its been showering since then) and yes the imperishable reality of my life was mizzling lightly, with each of the droplets witnessing my delight in my eyes and whispering in my ears with ecstasy "It's gonna drizzle in each and every pulse of your breath"...And indeed it is...Let me put it my mother tounge here...I cant find any other sentence which can do justice to my thoughts/my feel/my love other than this- " VARSHA KAALAM PEYTHIRANGUKAYAAYI" (TO BE CONTINUED)
