Monsoon magic

Forget the potholes and the water logging and monsoon becomes the most romantic season of the year and also the most enjoyable. There are so many things that come along with the incessant rains which I happen to love.





The cold strong winds that make you shiver and the thick black clouds that span the sky.







The different shades of green all around and the saundhi-saundhi mitti ki khushboo (sweet smell of the soil) that emanates as the first rain drops fall on the ground.








The rain drops that soak you however you hold the umbrella and the many hued umbrellas themselves showing that variety is indeed the spice of life.










The deliberate walking through the puddles and the splashing of water while doing so.












The rainbow that leaves you in awe as it seem to curves over the entire city and the joy of having spotted it.










The smell coming from a home where hot pakoras (fritters) are being fried.











The garma-garam chai ki pyaali (hot cup of tea) in one hand and a book in another.











Watching the pitter-patter raindrops while standing by the window and automatically singing romantic numbers.










Not to forget the wonderful sleep which catches you any time of the day.
