The Tap Refused to Flow

Noted Nest

By Kadambari Gupta


Taps the taps that are installed in our homes are for the purpose,

To wash our hands that are covered with germs and dirt accumulated from the surroundings,

That one stays in and for purpose of hygiene handwash and water is used before consuming our meals,

That day I opened the tap only to notice that water wasn’t coming repeated the process of opening the tap,

At least three to four times still water refused to flow why as in the tank there was so ,much water that an infant could swim,

However the tap was in his own ride refused to flow that day was getting late for work so used a sanitizer instead,

And then the tap for that week was in its own zone as the plumber came with his tools checked the tap thoroughly ,

Said the tap is fine no issues seen replacement isn’t required ,

Then after a week the tap was opened the flow of water seemed to be like a waterfall the clothes one wore got wet,

And the speed reflected a racing car ,

Even today this question bothers this being what had happened a week before why wasn’t the tap flowing can taps,

Also put on there thinking caps and think about how people forget or are careless enough not to close them after use,

Were the taps reflecting there own frustrations or is it something else was the tap cursed for a week can it be so,

Well its time for this being to be in bed the tap tale and reasons are enough said,

That day taps refused to flow had stolen all charm and glow from the face and skin hope they don’t refuse to flow once again,

Make routine day a mess full of frustration and stress make routine day full of frustration and stress.
