The Cold Day
Introduction : India has four seasons. Winter is one of them. It lasts from the month of November to February. In England winter is a bad time. Of course, some of the days of winter are very chilly and unpleasant in India also.
Morning hours : In winter morning is the hardest time. The night's are long. So we wake on the morning at 5 o'clock. But it is so cold that we do like to rise and leave the beds. We cover ourselves with the quilt and remain lying comfortably on the warm bed. At last, we have to leave our beds and answer our natural calls. The water is very cold at this time. So we get fresh water from well or tap. But when we have washed ourselves, our hands become numb and we go to the fire place to warm our hands and other parts of our body.
Noon : Then we come out in the open. We bask ourselves in the bright sun. The sun which was so troublesome to us in summer is now quiet pleasant. We welcome home and sit in the sun. The farmers are happy to work in the fields in the open sun. If the sun is shining and the wild wind is calm nobody likes to go inside the house. The noon is a pleasant time on a cold day. The market are busy. People buy and sell things.
The Evening : The evening is again cold like the morning. The farmers return to their homes. The boys return to their houses from games. We all get into out rooms. All the doors and windows are shut. We try to shop wind Coming from outside. Sometime it is very cold. We then prepare fire and sit near it. After our meals in the night, we feel colder. We are sure to sit near the fire to make ourselves warm. The children as well as grownups sit around the fire and tell stories and talk abouts different thing's. It is a happy time. After some time, we become quite warm and then we retire to our beds.
The Clothes in Winter : In winter and cotton are the most comfortable things. We put woollen clothes. But they are expensive. Poor people use cottons jackets stuffed with cotton. This keeps them very warm. At night, the quilts gives us great comfort. Of course, it is troublesome to move about and touch water with the hands, because the cold is bitter and painful. The people who have no clothes have a hard time in winter. Many beggars and poor people die of cold. The rich people are of course, happy because they put on sufficient clothes.
Conclusion : In England and other western countries peoples make their rooms warm by means of electricity. On the whole the winter is not bad for all people, as the summer.
