Winter Morning

A winter morning is misty and cold. It is in fact nice in a sense as there is a dense fog everywhere. Some times, the fog is so dense that the sun rays cannot get through it. Everything looks hazy. Things at near and distant can hardly be seen. The sun seems to rise late. Children and old people suffer from the pinching cold of the morning. Dewdrops fall at night. When the morning sun peeps, they look like glittering pearls on grasses and plants. Formers go to the fields with their cows and ploughs. It is common scenery that children and old people gather straw and make fires to warm up themselves. Usually winter morning is comfortable for rich people. They keep themselves under the quilt. On the other hand, poor people suffer from cold for want of warm clothes. People like to eat Chitai, Muri and other type of delicious pitha during this time. Date juice is very tasteful in the winter morning. Delicious sweetmeats are also prepared with date juice. People with relatives get together in the morning to pass some quality times.
