After-Rain

Image result for water splash out of puddlesWalking on the road, big and wide
All the bubbles in puddles flowing astride.
The greenery after rain is something you cannot miss
How could you ignore nature's bliss?

Little drops falling on your head
Striding off the leaves wherever the wind led.
How alive do you feel in this after-phenomenon?
With your partner holding hands, your cheeks redden.

Nothing is more adventurous than a cycle ride.
The feeling when the breeze brushes your face,
When you and the wind are competing in a race

Hot and crispy fries as a treat
Best when the season is complete.
Share the joy as you wander;
This is the time you may squander.

The day is not to be put to use,
The day is to set yourself loose.
Be out of your comfortable little space,
In lieu of being a jack be an ace
