A few drops of water trickling down the roof is a sight for sore eyes. And that i s exactly what one looks forward to come June. Monsoon sets in, or there are indications that monsoon is not far off… Aarthi S shares a few photographs she had shot during the last monsoon when she managed to go on a mini holiday with her best friends…

A wind has blown the rain away and blown the sky away and all the leaves away, and the trees stand. I think, I too, have known autumn too long.
e. e. cummings

Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky.
Rabindranath Tagore

I love the rain. I want the feeling of it on my face.
Katherine Mansfield

Ah, the beautiful sweet smell of rain…What are your fondest monsoon memories?
