Queen of Rain

Aha! It's raining again here and surely I'm not loving it this time. I mostly drive my motorbike to workplace and this gets really tough doing so when it's drizzling through out the day. This sort of weather in a city like Bangalore is never welcomed because all you are going to see around is a lot of mud, slow traffic and dirty cloths.

If I had to ask Zeus who is supposed to be the god of rain and thunder according to Greek mythology, I would ask him for a good few hours of heavy rain and empty that gigantic tank of water in one shot every day rather than pouring it all slowly through out the day. And yeah! also will ask him to pour it all when it's rainy season and not the entire year.

By the way I think it shouldn't be the rain god but it should be the "rain goddess" because rain is lovely (if you have seen it raining in the country side, you know what I am talking about) and many times it reminds of the time when one fell in true love for the first time; just like those water droplets falling from the sky and hitting the ground without acknowledging any sense of pain or misery in spite of knowing the fact that their existence will elope in the dry ground as soon as they hit it. This sort of emotional arousal can be provoked only by a "her-heart", so now you know why said it has to be "rain goddess" or "queen of rain" :-)

And now that reminds of the Roxette's queen of rain song, hopelessly romantic song and goes like:

In that big big house

there are fifty doors

and one of them leads to your heart.

In the time of spring

I passed your gate

and tried to make a start.

All I knew

was the scent of sea and dew

but I've been in love before, how about you?

There's a time for the good in life,

a time to kill the pain in life,

dream about the sun you queen of rain.

In that big old house

there are fifty beds

and one of them leads to your soul.

It's a bed of fear,

a bed of threats,

regrets and sheets so cold.

All I knew your eyes so velvet blue,

I've been in love before, how about you?

There's a time for the good in life...

Time went by

as I wrote your name in the sky,

fly fly away,

bye bye.

It's time to place your bets in life,

I've played the loser's game of life,

dream about the sun you queen of rain.

Here is the song
