Good Old Days

By Puja Chandrashekhar Satpute

It was the first snowfall of the year. The sky was pouring small white crystals of frozen water covering the ground with the layers of snowflake.

The white appearance of the surrounding and fresh cool breeze were emitting pure vibrations, thus producing a sense of harmony.

The flames from fireplace were making the house warm. Sitting by the balcony and taking a sip of hot chocolate, I was observing the children’s outside the house, who were busy making a snowman. Curling up my legs on sofa and looking at the photos of my childhood, I went in the past replacing those children’s with me and my friends...and a series of images started flashing in front of me...

Ah! Those were the days...when we use to eagerly wait for the Christmas vacation, the festival was celebrated with a pre-planned programs. From shopping to preparing feast, all use to participate enthusiastically😀 From hearing stories about Santa Claus 🎅 to actually getting gifts from him were the most beautiful moments😍 From playing in snow with friends and making a Snowman ⛄ were the best memories of life...

While thinking about those magical moments, a sudden light knock on door brought me in the present. Sighing...I went to open the door and surprisingly found my friend’s standing in front of me to relish those good old days!!! Smilingly, I welcomed them and thanked Santa...for fulfilling my wish by giving the best gift for Christmas- those good old days.
