THE SPARK

THE SPARK


This was her first Sesolahan,
Standing behind the curtains, she quickly memorized it again,
It's captivating to see how a body works
A treat to your heart, a trick to your soul,
'Masukkan Sita' - he shouts out loud
The Conch resonated her beauty, standing by her,
Her cold feet pacing towards the raging fire,
.
.
.
The scene ended, only to continue tomorrow,
But the little girl,
Found it so hard to believe
Her make belief world had no room for evil
Finding solace in reminiscence is always so hard,
She remembered her mother and shead a drop of tear,
'Hurry' her friends insisted as all  posed for a picture
With a smile so big
 As she performed so well,
Little did she realize...

It's 5pm. Icy, windy and dim, Messy hair, Crumbled bedsheet and a deadline in my mind . Scribbling through a notepad for my new story, I am kept awake through the night Isn't caffeine supposed to help?  I could hear the falling rain on my window pane Children playing in the puddles, dew frosted on the grass, Some feeling the damp in the cold air, Others just snuggling up close, Some happy faces coming back from school- it's a rainy day afterall!!! This made me remember my excitement when the notice board said 'classes dismissed'. As cartoons were my rescue, With a warm glass of milk & my favourite cookie Who doesn't like skipping classes once in a while? The sound of gentle breeze made me go for a walk. Grabbing my overcoat along with a book in hand It's quiet but my place. Like a portrait from a colored palette. Like the trees swinging by, Like silver lining,glittery stars all shining bright. Like the gravel pathway and olive paddock  showing me a way, ...

I have scuba dived into the depths of ocean, paraglided through the wind, walked in the sea bed, rolled downhill zorbing, witnessed a snowfall at Christmas,sandstorm,seen a catacomb, hopped pandals at Durga Pujo and so on.STILL, i have never seen the wrath of nature or thousands of people praying for their lives.This list that I was so proud of proved me wrong. 20.05.2020. (MAY DAY) The day started with the falling rain on my windowpane. Eagerly making me sleep for some more time. 'It's cozy here' I think  until it all goes for a toss. Pending assignments, exams didn't make me give much thought to this impending adversity. Suddenly the gentle breeze turned into a storm. Leaving our lunch midway we started closing the windows. There were sparks all the time. I have never witnessed such a catastrophe ever before. I have seen these in movies -buildings collapsing, rooms being flooded with water, no electricity, no network, no water and for some people no roof over their he...
