"Flickering lights all around. It has come it seems, Diwali has come.
Day of lights, noise and smoke. Lights are terrifying. They burned my friend last year.
I will move away from these lights and find my solace in darkness, my abode.
Oh no, why are they coming here?"
An agonising wail engulfed the locality.
(From the canine who never enjoyed diwali)
*Happy Diwali
*Please be kind to animals

And a yet another perspective on why we should have a cleaner and safer noise free diwali.. :)
ReplyDeleteFear can definitely dampen the celebrations, especially if something unsafe has happened in the past.
ReplyDeleteAgree with Sid, a safe and noise free Diwali would be the best :)
Short and crisp...! Good take !!
ReplyDeleteVery sensitive take on the prompt!!! Noise pollution, air pollution...the side-effects of Diwali celebrations. Hopefully, the concept of Green Diwali spreads its footsteps a lit faster.
ReplyDeleteShort and crisp...! good one!
ReplyDeletegreat message.....nice!
ReplyDeleteI agree....how beautiful it will be if the crackers are handled responsibly.
ReplyDeleteBut we Indians live half of our life showing off, I am not afraid...and do stupid things.
Short and precise. Nice. All the best for BATOM
such things reduces the charm of a festival, good to spread that message
