Records N’ Rains

Written By Laksshha Khanna (Grade 10)


Rain pattered violently against the window 
Droplets washing everything anew 
Giving the earth a resplendent glow 

The record tucked under your arm was retro
Your hair was drenched 
Rain pattered violently against the window 

I heard you shout my name from below
As I slipped outside the door
Giving the earth a resplendent glow 

Guns N’ Roses demarcated the beginning of the fiasco
We jumped and danced and sang along as the 
Rain pattered violently against the window 

Feeling every word Axl vocalised, we put on quite the show 
Air guitar, non-existent drums, all was played
Giving the earth a resplendent glow 

The torrential downpour came to a slow
We grabbed towels and headed inside
Rain pattered violently against the window
Giving the earth a resplendent glow
