Autorickshaws are back


 Most of the autorickshaws drivers are from other states and they had gone to their respective homes when lockdown was announced as they could not afford to live in the city without plying their autorickshaws. But now with the easing of the lockdown they have started returning to plying their taxis. A relief to the citizens and of course a means of living to the drivers. Signs of normalcy gradually appearing.

Blue sky


 We had an afternoon's respite from the rains and had the pleasure of a blue sky.

[Verse 1]
Walk along the river, sweet lullaby
They just keep on flowin', they don't worry 'bout where it's goin', no, no

[Verse 2]
Don't fly, mister blue bird, I'm just walkin' down the road
Early morning sunshine, tell me all I need to know, oh

[Chorus]
You're my blue sky, you're my sunny day
Lord, you know it makes me high
When you turn your love my way
Turn your love my way, yeah

[Guitar Solos: Duane Allman & Dickey Betts]

[Verse 3]
Good old Sunday mornin', bells are ringin' everywhere
Goin' to Carolina, it won't be long and I'll be there

[Chorus]
You're my blue sky, you're my sunny day
Lord, you know it makes me high
When you turn your love my way
Turn your love my way, yeah, yeah
