The Drunken Angel

rain2

Tar-black darkness all around… Heavy Rains pouring in…
waterlevel riding high, crossing waist level
Their Hut dint withstandthe water pressure… and collapsed…
The couple finding their way out to reach a safer place…

They could hear many of them travelling wid them…
but visible only when the lightning striked…
They could hear a sound behind them…
he held his wife by one hand…
he suspected someone closely following thr footsteps…

the footsteps behind now clearly heard …
they raised their pace towards the bridge… connecting the high-lying area…
they could hear the splashing water sound…
indicating the fall and rise of the person in water…

finally they reached the bridge…
many like them heading towards the high lying area…
they could find the helping guards wid torches at the othr end…
hope for survival raised… the footsteps still heard from behind…

water level high…
one by one all of them crossing the bridge…
the old bridge dangled more wid the current of water…
the couple too left now…
when crossed half way to the bridge…

water level high…
a crackling sound…
the right corner bridge Screws were washed away in river…
the footsteps of d person now stopped…

water level high…
They could only hear… “Keep Walking… in drunked voice “

water level high…
and the voice of a bottle felling down…the low lying area was now almost empty…

water level high…
a Lightning striked…
everyone could c.. a body floating at right side of the bridge…
wid his right hand acting as a screw to the bridge…
and now the huge water current driving the drunked person and the bridged completely…

A real life incident which occured on 26 th July Mumbai rains in one of the slum areas..
The Drunked Angel showed such a Humanity… without fear for his own life… he saved life of many of them…
V hardly recognize the unknown helping hands around us…
A little humanity… A little help… may have a huge difference in someone’s life…
Lets thank such unknown helping hands by being helpful to society…
