The Seasons of the Year. My Favourite Season. It’s a universal truth that every season is beautiful in its own way. Isn’t it wonderful to tramp down the country lanes on a frosty winter day.

and adulthood. Yet the sweet memories of childhood linger on. My childhood recollections are those of a sheltered and carefree life‚ nurtured with love and concern. As I was the first child in the family‚ everybody doted on me. My funny lisping‚ my innocent mischief and my inane talk-everything was a source of immense pleasure to them.
