Just a small random poem I scribbled during my last journey to home. Out I went under the starry sky, unaware of the full moon shining bright. So beautiful as was the view; so much to see, so much to love. I had only drunk half a glass of its glory when my eyes turned […]

This micro-story was my first entry for a recent story writing contest at Accenture (results have yet to be declared).

Today, early in the morning, it was a bad weather outside; an overcast sky. Then I thought things like this could happen if you need to get up to get ready for school, college or office in such a bad weather: I woke up in the morning and it was darkness still, the darkness was […]
