A handful of water

The first rays of sunlight
knock through the window pane.

The alarm clock buzzes.

A familiar noise can be heard.

Splash!
Repeated once, twice.

What could it be ?

Clearing away,
those continuous waves of slumber,

the layers of
lethargic stupor,

the sleep induced reluctance
to face the day,

the first gentle spray of water,
on the face,
is a whispery 'good morning '
from the treasure trove of Nature.


Call it, a handful of joy...

and as those cool drops, trickle down,
as if in a race,
each trying to outwit the other,

washing away,
any trace of the
stresses and strains
of the previous day,

you decide against
wiping dry
the myriad refeshing droplets
dotting your face

coz the sun outside is busy
sending reminders -
the sizzling heat is here to stay.
