Love in the times of Lockdown
Just seeing a smiley,On my phoneSend by youIn a carefree moodIs enough to igniteA thousand lightsAnd zap the somnolenceOf my heartWatching you arriveAfter a weary waitGreen tics tantalisingly Start turning blue.And the very few wordsYou delicately typeTouch my heartIn some unknown ways.My heart skips a beat,Eyes light up with joyAs I feel your warmthSurrounding me.©️ShashikantDudhgaonkar
