Figures in the sky


In the in-between sky,
A rain just gone and a rain
About to arrive,
 Tinged with hues electrifying,
Some dark-light and some light-gloomy;
Swollen clouds, dusty and grey
Alternating with gossamer white/pale-white;
Like a swarm of kids unleashed,
Enjoying the heavenly drops,
On the broken footpaths,
 Outside their leaking hovels,
These ethereal figures dance and gallop,
At the edge of a muddy ocean and jutting
Shadowy islands in the immensity above,
Created and then left hurriedly there by
The angry monsoon that reluctantly has
Finally reached Mumbai and nearby.
