My Experience on A Rainy Day
My Experience on A Rainy Day gives me sweet memories. Rains are blessings. Rains are a curse. If we could control rains and bring them on wherever we are in need or keep them off as long as we desires them, of course rains would be a blessing. But as it is, elements of nature are not under human control sometimes not to our liking. There was a day when it rained and I did not like it.
It was a holiday and I had planned to enjoy the day. I was to pay a visit to my sister at Thriuttani which is at a distance of 75 kilometers form my place. Early that morning I started from house.
Even at that hour I could see bad weather ahead. Dark, smoky clouds threatened rain. I thought I would be safe if I got into a bus. As! It was in vain.
I was getting into the blue when it started raining and it’s rained the way it has never rained. Within a few minutes anyone was drenched to the skin. None got the time to get a shelter. In a very short time the roads were flooded. The traffic came to a standstill.
Visibility was reduced to a few meters. It poured so heavily that even there headlights of the bus could not pierce the thick sheet of water pouring form the sky. Water collected more speedily than it went down the drains.
The stalls and the temporary structures for the shops at the bus stop dripped. Those inside the shops and buses were in no way better than those outside on the road who were getting wet in utter helplessness. It soon became worse.
The stools, benches, chairs and small tables kept for customers outside the shops and stalls began to float in the rising streams of rain water. It was a pity to see people running after their articles.
A man running to catch a bench fell into a drain. He might have been swept away by the strong current but the water itself threw him out. The poor man stood for a moment looking dazed at the rushing water.
It rained for four hours during which period all activities came to a standstill. When at last the rain stopped, I was hardly in shape to carry on my journey. There was hardly any time left for the return trip.
Moreover, I left home sick and longed to be at home in my comfortable bed. Hence I came home.

A rainy day is such a day when it rains all day long without any break. It generally occurs during the rainy season. It rains cats and dogs on a rainy day. A rainy day looks dull and gloomy.
This year I had a very pleasant and memorable experience of a rainy day. This was the day when my school had re-opened after the summer vacation. The days were unbearably hot sultry. Outside it was really scorching heat. I was going to my school in the morning by a rickshaw. It was quite hot and uncomfortable. Soon the sky became overcast with big and dusky clouds. There were thunders followed by flash of lighting. It grew dark soon and temperature suddenly dropped down low. Then it began to rain heavily. The clouds thundered and poured water. People were drenched but happy and so was I. I protected my school bag and then ran into a nearby fast food shop for shelter. Some passersby had already taken shelter there. It was raining continuously for one hour. The roads, streets and other place got flooded very soon. The traffics came to a halt as there was knee deep water at many places on the roads. I was drenched to the skin and my school uniform was dripping but I felt much delighted getting cool and fresh.
When the rain stopped, I decided to return home. As I walked slowly, I noticed that everything had changed. Everything looked new and fresh. However, I reached home, changed my cloths and had a cup of hot tea. I enjoyed it as I had never before. It filled me with a sense of some indefinable pleasure and satisfaction.
