Shorts from LOCKDOWN :BLACKOUT
It was a blackout! A complete blackout!
The air, heavily laden with the petrichor, bore evidence of the rains.
The leaves in the trees rustled with joy, as a cold soothing breeze passed playfully amongst them.
The aura from the crescent Luna floated nonchalantly across the streets, caressing the flora and the concrete jungle, rendering them a luminescence.
The deafening silence was broken at times by the outrageous and solitary canine in the street.
A bicycle wheezed somewhere at a distance.
A grandfather clock dutifully struck 1.
Muffled voices could be heard emanating from the houses, at intervals, signalling the presence of living creatures in them.
The night of the blackout, amidst the LOCKDOWN, was something just like this.
