Rain Syndrome

| |


The rainy days are back in Colombo after many many weeks of skin-burning sunny spells and heat waves that felt almost a far-away dessert.

This tropical island can ignite with lust of the orange sun and then snap into a cooling sensation with crystal rain drops plunging down from hasty clouds soothing the earth.

In Colombo, it may not be an exaggeration, if I write that showers are meant for rush hours! Yes, in the mornings when kids are stumbling to school and their folks are getting to work; rain makes no delay in battering the ground into the evenings and ofcourse those returning home.

The other day, opposite my home, I clicked a poor crow worriedly swinging on a cob-web of street lines not very pleased at the grey clouds rushing in carrying tons of water to pour!
