AL and BL

No this article isn't about technology and how it took the human brains swiftly. I would  rather like to call it BL and AL ,i.e. Before Lock down and After Lock down . Lot of people were talking about the lock down been a boon for them and for some it was a curse. There were a section who believed in their own happiness and strategies. Some students were enjoying their long vacations while some students were totally getting mad over the locked up period. Some found solace in reading books and some found happiness in drawings and other creative skills. 

The whole pandemic situation can be differentiated in two points boon and curse. The boons can be many if not few and on the other hand the curses can be countable though the stress associated can be uncountable. {Am I being language bound?}

Point 1 --. The pandemic lock down showed a bizarre unity yet it was surreal. At one order from the highest honour made us stand together. The  after effect was it was soon forgotten, as if it never happened.

Point 2 --. The members of one family started to believe in the old concept of "the family that eats together stays together,smiles and plays indoor games together" . The curse or the side-effect of this it did not last wrong.{exceptions are always there, trust me they are my favourite}

Point 3 --. The city appeared clean and green. The hollering,honking and the chaotic life was all at a stand still. The bad side was there were heavy losses for the daily-wage earners. 👷💂💁

Point 4 --. The city saw birds which had chose to stay out of the city lights. The egregious of this was the vexatious of feeding them. The early mornings were melodious  and delightful once again. 

Point 5 --.  The regular  weekends were no more fun place for some but quite peaceful for the others.                           {Let's not get into details  😋}

 

Point 6 --. The other striking word that comes in both the situation whether pros or con  is Freedom . Due to the lockdown out most favourite aspect "freedom" was lost or rather captivated. Though this is completely my perspective.

Well, the list can go on and on . Do let me know your views. 

Till then just to soften up a little.... My new rendition:

Shoal of fish, in a box of glass

Some in gold, some in silver 

Some are black ,some are bright as white 

They love to dig the colourful stones 

They're all strong and iridescently  bright

The digging makes the aqua dirty 

Cleaning ,sometimes, makes feel me yucky 

Are you too, O' fish , down and locked 

As we humans seem to be blocked 

In just a trivial stay at home 

Nothing changed the way we roam

We love the outside when home 

We love the four walls when at Rome

Confused as we may seem ,we truly are.

O school of fish,  do not fight for  existence 

Water is for all as we all are for water 

Let us stay together

 some on earth some on water
