He seemed shocked at what
all he had been forced to see
in that crazy house
Those greenish yellow
eyes told a thousand words as
he kept staring on

If possible,
we would emerge out of this pandemic by switching it off,
If possible,
we would fume less and smile more as the pandemic taught us that life is short,
Maybe this is just an aberration
for learning to cope with a crisis.

As it rained, delight
turned to despair seeing the
flood and landslide
While he was deft, he
lost control of his car which
ended up crashing

The day was a disappointing experience. It all began downhill from the time he moved into the new place. While he knew that shifting to a new city was going to be tough, he had made peace with the fact that this would help him rise higher in his career based on how capable he was.
But his new neighbours didn’t make things any easier. They always seemed hysterical. From yelling at their house help to fighting with each other, it was a din of screaming voices.
He found that there is nothing behind the wall except a space where the wind whistles. And so he decided to ensure that the doors and windows are made soundproof. Once done, he was able to live a much calmer life free from the stream of noise he was forced to handle day in and day out.

Monday is Red for
the optimism & energy
it brings to the week
Tuesday is Orange
as there isn’t as much vigour
but still some sparks left
Wednesday is all
about Yellow which deals with
happiness & anxiety
November, a month
when people anticipate
upcoming winter
November, a month
when people vouch to raise awareness
about men’s health issues
November, a month
with people on tenterhooks
about more lockdowns
November, a month
when even the aeolist
may not survive the pandemic

Staying happy is a choice to keep
the mind lucid and fresh.
Happiness is that feeling which one gets
seeing loved ones virtually as a rule during the pandemic.
One feels the happiest when its possible
to hug loved ones after months of lockdown.

Dusseldorf
It looks like a dull
and dreary day with the sun
lost amidst the clouds
Dusseldorf
But then, grey turns to
blue and alleviates the
suffering of all
From almost being
underwater, the colours
have turned beautiful
It almost feels as
though the sunshine has devoured
the rain easily

Sun and the clouds were having a tiff
with the sun trying to win the battle
Clouds weren’t ready to take it lying down
and both decided on a face-off
Eyes jealousy
Grey life
Pale heat
Pellucid quest
Solitudes wish

The white sands were a magnet for tourists,
while activities like paragliding and scuba diving were fun, hardihood was key
They loved lazing on the beach
and getting scuttlebutt from friends,
When they were bored
they acted as if all the information was recondite
