A lovely winter morning

Thodi si zameen, thoda asman, tinkon ka bas ek ashiyan..... (थोडी सी ज़मीन , थोड़ा आसमान , तिनकों का बस एक आशियाँ - A bit of earth, a bit of sky , a bit of few things more for an abode)............ A group of teenage friends singing on the day of graduation from college - Saumya, Somali, Nidhi, Sandhya , Seema and I . We called ourseves 'Nisansotusalu' . It meant nothing, just the alphabets put together from everyone name and jumbled up in a way so it could at least be pronounced. The song we sang was special -hopes, dreams, aspirations and things as such.

The other day was a lovely winter morning so we went out to that church building opposite to our apartment where usually its quiet. They have swings in a circle shaped area and a big green pasture. So we went swinging for that's Neev's favorite thing to do. Later we played soccer with kids and went some more swinging. Sunshine kissed our faces as we swayed to the rhythm of going back and forth and I felt like singing that song. I did. Neev kind of liked it as was clear from his bent head against me, a sign of falling asleep. I glanced at Avi and Anurag playing soccer and continued singing...........थोडी सी ज़मीन , थोड़ा आसमान, तिनकों का बस एक आशियाँ !
