My First Poem - A rendition 37 years later

PDF Print E-mail


This poem is about my little sister who was having problems understanding why the sky would turn dark and the rain would start pouring after the brambroum of thunder and the shattering lighting on the tree branches. She clutched a mango leaf thinking it would save a tree from the thunder...and I wrote the poem on a piece of newspaper cutting. This version is a modern one indeed as the first was written 37 years ago!

 


rain, rain a rainy day
she was confused
the doldrum in the sky
the water pouring fast
rain, rain a rainy day
it was a moment
to ponder, stop, smile
what am I doing
A little girl
with the fear
of the sky
the sound and light
what is life
with the rain
the thunder
the lighting
grasping a mango leaf
running into shelter
rain, rain what a rainy day
downtown Port Louis City


 

 

It was in Port Louis City, Mauritius where I was born...
