Indian Summers

allsmiles | 28 March, 2005 13:56

Summers do not generally evoke the sense of romance in our country. Like they do in many other colder countries. For us, the monsoons do the trick, but sadly they are a long way off. All of us dread summers especially the harsh "loo" or heat waves up north or even the dry dusty heat in our own city.

Funnily, no one ever says I have seen 25 winters or monsoons.

But then, there are many joys of the season and here is an ode to some of them.

summer hols(for kids)
or a vacation
to some hill-station
ice creams sundaes
cola wars
more sport
more sweat (deodarants???)
sun tan creams
summer clothes
bright colours
jasmine and lilies
lemony juices
cool evening breeze
clear starry skies
chirping birds
midsummer night dreams
some showers
as pleasant surprises
and the golden "maaangoes"
but wait, not just yet!

Just a nice link on the topic...very colourful, vibrant and lively .... Indian Summer

No matter what! Can anything ever replace the joy of childhood summers. You should read Robert McCammons "A Boys life". You might like it. And hey...nice place you got here

Yes!! Summers (during childhood)bring very fond memories. Especially whenever travel was involved. Thanks for dropping by, Alex.
