I Surmised

I was still lying down,
As the danger bells imposed lockdown.
When the zephyrs coming through the net doors,
I tucked myself tightly in the covers.
The most euphonious sounds,
Echoing on and on in my ears.
Chirping and tweeting of birds,
Buzzing of dragon-flies,

Warbling like symphonic notes.
The sweet fragrance of flora,
Blended with the aroma of Terra.
I thought I was in a delusion,
But the jargon caught my attention.
I looked through the window bars
Felt the aurora's rising rays.
For many decades I have lived here,
Never noticed such a joyful clamor!
The bliss of nature beyond my horizon,
For many years I have been in isolation.
