The Rain Trilogy.....


Part One: Before it Rains!

The Rain has captivated us all! (Yeah right! a friend and i tried a song inspired by rain but never worked) In science we learn that it's a part of the Water Cycle, a cycle where water is stolen with a sense of justice but in the stealth mode by heat (Usually our enemy except while cooking ;) ) and then returned in a rather romantic   state of affairs, where heat's chief advocate - the sun, is imprisoned behind thick fluffy carriers of that stolen water in its spirit form. (gaseous form)

  The moments before a rain are, i guess, one of the most non-colourfully beautiful nostalgic moments, for everything looks 'grayish'.....  Besides the grayish spectrum shown to the eyes, these moments do bring an ecstasy to the other senses as well. (except the sense of 'taste' i guess) The sudden drop in temperature shows itself through the cool breeze that caresses your skin, sometimes causing goosebumps and the smell of the soil, (this for the folks who know what soil is :P) which sometimes makes us wonder where this aroma is hidden all this time, as if the rain enlightens us to a higher level of olfactory process. The army of fluffy warriors marching, (actually floating but i need a certain picture.. so) as they take Sun a prisoner along with the lights and the sound effects, with inbuilt delay, they tarry across from the horizon. As they race to capture the skies with their rather dull colour, they wait for the signal, which sometimes i think is just that one naughty drop who falls first and then the stampede begins and this is called "RAIN"...

The time before a rain, seem powerfully beautiful and these moments also kick in an extra adrenaline to go play the best football, which usually happens when girls are pretending to watch us play football... Fine! now that i said that i am nostalgic of something from the past... So Adieu! ;)
