Monsoon Story: Lokesh Joshi

Monsoon

Monsoon always had a special place in the heart of Rajasthan. It gives us the relief from intense heat of summer. It changes our whole environment in matter of minutes. One can easily observe the joy & happiness on the face of any living being at that moment.

I would like to share few memories of my childhood which are deeply engraved in my heart. When rain drop falls on the hot sand you get a magnificent fragrance, it’s the most soothing smell for the soul. Peacock comes out on the ground spreads it wings rain and dances in the rain, the whole world is bedazzled by this spectacular phenomenon. Monsoon is the time when our state becomes colorful, we cherished every single moment of the rain.

No Monsoon

As a result of global warming day by day the span of monsoon is reducing. The year I left my home town we never had any rain, I missed it a lot. We all look up in the sky in a hope to see a small trace of the cloud, it’s a long sometimes a never ending wait. With every passing year temperature is rising, ponds are drying out, ever lasting droughts many more disasters. I request everyone from bottom of my heart to step up and take the essential measures to bring back the symbol of joy and happiness -Monsoon.
