Winter Memoirs
The drops of water falling from an old rusty tap, Rhythming perfectly with the rain sound on the window panes, pit pat, pit pat. The wind was blowing hard The winter gust were chilling and teeth splattering. People on the road sitting below the sheds, around bonfire, singing folklore and […]
