Black Rain

This short poem is a dedication to my friend Asmitha who has the most gorgeous black hair ever! I wanted to write this a while back but it is only now that i could form words with enough beauty and passion! Enjoy Ash!


She sat still and lucid
As bright as ivory, as smooth as marble
Sunbeams danced on her façade
And a beautiful silence seemed to envelope the room
Her hands lay softly on her lap
Her head tilted in expectation
Eyes revealed enigma
Her smile set ablaze the still air
Lo! Feel a sheet of black rain
As she moved every so quietly
Black beads fell gently on her forehead
And a wave rode down her back
She leaned forward to touch a sunbeam
Black rain washed down her face
Cut a sluice in the sparkling yellow
And drenched the sun’s thirst
The sun begged for more
She just smiled her slight smile
And let the black rain pour.
