COLD SNAP
Once i felt your cold snap Autumn,
As sudden end to Summer.
My bags were packed that same day,
For home i had to be.
Way across ocean clouds,
There i had to fly.
Vacations; they are wonderful,
Yet home i had to be.

    We here in India cherish winter after the hot summer days. Even now a days during autumn the temperatures are high and sun is very bright.
