1. Prompt 1

The Mumbai Rains are splashing around

Drenching droplets, a pounding sound

Rattling sheets and smoking cars

Shrieking trees and dewy stars

Rippling songs in a humid note

Slipping on streets, a sticky coat

And sometimes a smile

Sometimes a hand

To soften this night

This thunderous band!

This pattering plight where’er I go

The rhythm of life in a pulsing flow
