“When you go,
if you go,
And I should want to die,
there’s nothing I’d be saved by
more than the time
you fell asleep in my arms
in a trust so gentle
I let the darkening room
drink up the evening, till
rest, or the new rain
lightly roused you awake.
I asked if you heard the rain in your dream
and half dreaming still you only said, I love you.”
― Edwin Morgan, New Selected Poems
Monsoon is not just about the rain, or is it? 
Anyways, you take care!
Monsoon is about feelings, smells and colors, all of which I can taste in your photos, Nandini.
You are absolutely right! And, I’m glad that you could feel all that here.
Thanks, Marion.

Lovely images, Nandini.
(how long do the monsoon rains last in your area?).
This year, the monsoon has delayed it’s departure. That’s what weather people said. But usually, it starts by mid-June till August end.

The poem is magical. I read it several times. A clever addition to a monsoon that has forgotten to leave. The world weather has gone crazy no?
Love the photos. Interesting to see how beautiful and romantic a drop of rain on a leaf can be.
