A GIFT FROM CHILDHOOD

Hark-back to a long forgotten moment
Beauty of true existence blowed away
Desperate for a time long gone
A time long forgotten like waves on the sea
A time now living consciously in the mind
A nature's shower to mankind
A cloud mass of water vapor floats the sky
Following a flash light of lightning
Preceding a deep rumbling sounds of thunder
A foot into the puddle with a splash of water as it is to a thirsty man
A contagious smile that infects others with brimming joy
Those eyes so deep and beautiful that a whole world is reflected in them
A jump so high to catch the droplets of rainfall
In unison we launch a paper boat in the puddle
In believe that it will sail on the biggest oceans ever heard
In togetherness we laugh with wishes that it never ends as we appreciate the fleeting yet enchanting beauty of nature's color
Indeed a moment which radiates beam of light even in the darkest places shall it ever be
A blissful moment of my childhood
A tale thou didst promise to share with the later generation.
Memories that will forever be dear

SHORT DESCRIPTION:
When I was much younger, my mom didn't always allow me to play in the rain with other kids my age because most times I had braids on my head. So when I got my hair cutted;others thought I would hate it but the truth is, I was happy and the first rainfall after the haircut was memorable. Childhood nostalgia resonates with that first rainfall after my haircut.
