Season of Hopefulness

softpedia.com

From the depth of vales the clouds rise

Reaching the higher sky, it collides

Producing a flash of light, then a thunderous roar.

Down in the valley the Peasants wait

For the first spring shower. And as the rain falls,

It cleanses all the dirt left by the gloomy winter.

In fields the farmers toil, with spade and shovel,

While in school the students slog with sheets and pen,

To harvest the fruits when the year ends.

As humid replaces aridness, the grasses pierce

From the barren lawn. The trees sprout lush of leaves,

 On the temperate hills, blooms the beauty of rhododendrons.

The Cranes, they fly back to the northern plateaus,

To escape the rising heat of lengthy days,

 Leaving behind, the echoes of their melodious tweets.

With favorable weather, the birds fly higher

 And in rivers the fishes swim swifter. Breathing the fresh air

 Of newborn shoots, nature itself is inspirational.

Gone are the days of parchedness and gloominess,

With spring comes aspiration, so let heart grow tenderer

To reap proportionate warmth latter,

 for it is the season of hopefulness.
