The neatly stacked pile of shirts is in a disarray. My laundry guy is amazed at the amount of the same shirts being sent for re ironing again,he does not complain though. The shirts on the floor are picked up by the maid grudgingly.
There is talcum powder scattered all over my ebony wood floor where you can just skate with your bare feet, The soles are perfumed and the socks too feel pampered.
The I pods lie in different rooms severed from their docks. They are longing to be re attached again and resume their music. The CDs too are away from their cases, some have been scratched beyond recognition so as to be played by any player in the world. The wires connecting my theater system are pulled out of their sockets. The remotes lack crucial buttons and batteries too.
The crumbs of bread and biscuits stick to your floor as you step out of my room. Toys frequently hit your feet. A milky spill adheres like glue to your powdered feet. It slows your walking pace. A few utensils and spoons lie on the floor. They are banged at will and bear marks on them. The pillows on the sofa are over here and there.
My books which were so neatly covered with plastic are carefully stripped down. The plastic flies about making a rustling sound. Some books on the lower shelves have their pages missing too. A comic book lies on the floor which looks tired after a tough journey through a shredding machine. There is chaos everywhere.
Our watchmen frequently retrieve the toys which have been flung out from our home. They are a worried lot as objects gain momentum when thrown from a height. Their stiff caps may not be able to protect them from this onslaught.
We are the innocent victims of a Hurricane attack.
It occurs daily in our house.
Its called Hurricane Prithvy! My naughty son. He leaves a trail of destruction wherever he goes and smiles after his acts. We too smile and hope that someday he will understand.
I will have to stop typing urgently as he is pulling the laptop away from me......
Over and Out! Transmission Lost! SOS SOS HELP US!
