As the rain fell into the night...

Now-a-days in the darkest of nights

As the rain falls softly outside

I sit by the window staring out

Expecting those magical moments

Once again, as they come and sit on my lap

And I start dreaming again.

Those days when I had stayed up in wait

And you slept not a wink

Lest I be frightened of the distance

When the rain fell and wet my hands

And you would catch a cold imitating me

When tucked in muffins we would lay

Submerged in happiness, of those bygone days.

Please do appreciate my sincere efforts.
