What does a cyclone bring?

Tropical Cyclone Gamede is gone but still lurking in the Indian Ocean. What does a cyclone bring? It brings five days of much needed rain to quench the thirst of the land. It brings five days with veiled sky. It brings five lightless nights. It brings five nights appreciating candlelight. And a day to clean all the mess.

Cyclones always remind me that I am a robot. No electricity and I die.

Anyway, tomorrow will be a new day. I will wake up and hope to see a perfect blue sky with a blazing sun. And, at nightfall when I come back from work, I wish I will see stars. I miss the stars.
