SUMMER ‘RAIN’

Concrete jungles
melting under
the blistering sun
street-side walkers
under the burning sun
‘shiver’ with ‘summer fever’
some falling unconscious dehydrated.
The last drop of water
gets sucked out of
the drought affected
remote fields
by the blazing sun
like a body ripped apart
in a mayhem.
Sun-strokes like
thunder-strokes
leave sun-burns
over the helpless
under the afternoon sun
and the juice
of life is drawn out.
While the world gets roasted
by the sun
a few cocooned
inside the A/c rooms
men, women and children
enjoy the breezy moments of life
like hermits in the caves.
