The sky was a sheet of murky grey, completely devoid of sunlight.
The sea was a ghastly dark blue. The gentle waves licking at the shore gave forth a
humming sound like that of fish in shoals.
All that foreboded a storm.
Some isles in the sea stood quiet and still like ebony sculptures.
I walked towards the sandy beach carrying my lunch-box and then sat inside a fishing
boat moored at the seashore.
What an insipid and dreary scene! I opened the lunch-box only to have it covered up
again.
Looking back, I caught sight of a lonely crematorium looming out of a pine wood. Its
towering red-brick chimney was giving off wisps of grayish smoke.
