A Day in Kashmir

It was a cold and harsh day. The big and small trees were covered with snow. There were snow-capped mountains. The weather was below freezing. Animals were suffering from the cold. They were hiding behind the green trees which were covered with snow. The animals were biting themselves. The sky was bleak. It was a bone-chilling day. A brisk wind was blowing on the trees. It was getting to become subzero. The bricks were crinkling. Everything outside was snowy. A rabbit was roaming around and searching for a carrot. Many people come here for vacation. Kashmir was very populated. Animals like bears, bees, and birds, hibernate during the cold season. No one dared to come out of their houses in such cold weather. Some people were playing in the snow. They were making snowballs and throwing at each other.

Amongst them was a very kind boy. Unintentionally, snow went into his mouth while playing with his friends. Suddenly he felt very cold in his mouth. The snow tasted disgusting to him. On his way back home after playing, he passed by a hut that smelled awful like rotten fish.

As he knocked on his house door, his mother called out, “Ehan the door is open”. Ehan was a short boy who lived in a small house with his parents. He was a very kind, innocent, smart, and intelligent boy. He was wearing a lot of layers of clothes to protect himself from cold along with a sweater and a jacket. He heard his friends calling him for a walk. Quickly he put on his boots and went out. While walking they did not realize that they had climbed up a hill.

Ehan was very worried as he was lost. He was very sad as he did not know his home address. He was very scared because there were many strangers and thieves. He thought of a lot of ideas, but they did not work. He asked his friends and people around, but no one could help.

Finally, he found a way home by following his boot’s footsteps. Ehan reached home, hugged his parents, and was very happy. After that, he prayed to God and thanked Him.
