A lovely poem Geeta...prior to rain fall you must have done an alapana in Amrithavarshini raga I suppose.. very interesting to read...the poem has a dulcet effect like the raga Malayamarutham...thanks and God bless you

Finding rythm and notes in every movement in nature is a rare gift. You have amazingly depicted the various RAAGAS of our activities while in the rain. Thank you Geeta Menon

I have often felt that rain does sing (or swing) to the tune of one raaga or other. I imagine her as my true lover always eager to yield to her embrace. You have aptly expressed to “Laasyabhaavam” of the rain in the poem. And of course, her sombre meditative mood too. Loved it. Moved. A 100++++++

Swinging in the Rain With the breezy sway of Raaga Hindolam.... //.... Exquisitely crafted poem with a series of Musical Raagas relating to a succinct mood and time of the day during rainy season. Raag Megh Malhaar and Raag Hansadhwani are very popular not only among connoisseurs but ordinary lovers of music also. Thanks, Geeta ji, for such a representational information in poetic form on the subject.
