Tiny petals are smiling as the the rain drop kisses the flowers,
Peacocks are dancing in mood as they feel the showers,
Waves are jumping with joy as falling rain greets the river,
Clouds are happy to run with cold breeze and shiver,
An aura of fragrance is lifted in air when mud and rain come together,
Birds are chirping tweet-tweet on a window; perhaps they have something to say forever.
It’s a beautiful feeling we all have found,
We thank you water for being around!
