On a rainy day

On a rainy day, it rains all day long. A rainy day is dull and gloomy. The sky is overcast with thick clouds. None can go out without an umbrella. Water stands the roads and roads become muddy and slippery. Those who have offices and other businesses go out with umbrellas over their head, shoes in hand and clothes folded up to the knee. Passers-by also move in the same way. Sometimes people slip and fall on the muddy road. When it rains in torrents, people get drenched and stop midway. The poor suffer much on a rainy day. They cannot go out in quest of work and cannot earn their daily food. They pass the day through sufferings. Most of the students do not go to the school. Only a few go to the school, but they get drenched on the way. So, classes are not held and it is a day of great joy to them. Other people stay at home and pass the day without doing anything. The cattle keep standing in their sheds and bellow. A rainy day is a mixed day of joy and sorrow. Despite all its disadvantages, we enjoy ourselves on this day. It brings some variety to our monotonous life.
