Just when it was about to rain
ensuring that no one noticed,
I sneaked out
without an umbrella or raincoat.
It first drizzled on my face
drops coalescing into
thin jets streaking meandering
on my cheeks and then
it started pouring on me
As I walked the muddy path
which had no tree covers
only pits turned to puddles
nor man made shelters
in that forlorn, unused
mountain trail where
no one else but I walked
to soak and drench myself
and jump on the puddles
in my freedom so absolute
that no one can tell me
what to do with it.
But
for as long as I
stood far away,
alone
