Intense passion for swimming

Finding a lanky boy in a dark red T-shirt wandering around as though he had just returned from his regular daily swimming practice was obviously a total surprise. This  was not the case at all. He can't explain why he decided on routine swimming, despite his considerable height. He didn't appear to realise that the chlorine in the water would turn his face dark. He and two other older boys were swimming without realising this important fact. This will continue for a minimum period of one full month, as was revealed. Every day, these three lads go to a nearby pool to practice swimming.

Winter Wear: The Thick of It


Though the season has not changed wholly, there persists hazy sunshine. Some senior people are seen wearing thick clothes. Even one asked them: Have you taken out the thick kurta.

The ongoing month advances by and by to its completion. It is surely giving us the first little glimmer of the approaching season. It is not like a dream but reality within reach. Not a few but all did realise it. Maybe I have too. 

The first and foremost thing we need to the process of seasonal transformation lingers undeniably. Of course, we all know that the winter season is not too far behind. None seems so envious of the upcoming winter season? We can not go harkening back upon the earlier spell.

We are continually waiting for the winter to feel absolutely comfortable and do not even care about frequent power cuts. What good is the warmth of summer, without the cold of winter to give it sweetness. 

Let us love winter, for it is the spring of genius. The colour of springtime is in the flowers, and the colour of winter is in the imagination.
