Midsummer Desert Musings

April 'n Summer at Door

All wait for it with fear

But it goes about spirited - warm

Bearing the sun with charm 

Bringing  reserves from its store

Beats about in May with a roar

Now winds no longer calm

With none of cooling balm 

We bear it up till June 

Then flee for homes far moon

Seeking cooler zones 

In lands of temperate zones

Alas, climate change is real

Afire, ev'n cooler zones all reel. 


In the South of India

We just have summer 'n rain

In the North of India

Spring 'n Summer with rain

An' fall n' winter no fail

With mist n' fog n' snow 'n hail

And all their charms do entail.

But Jai Hind for the summers kind

When breeze cools down the night

In skies open the poor unwind

When the rich with  ACs fight

Summers do take their toll

As waves heat up like flames

But the cool cold winters cruel

Make hundreds poor her claim!

... And this history repeats!!
