I Remember
I remember the shapes, structures and figures I drew on the canvas of the blue sky with clouds as my paint brush.
I remember getting gloomy for the characters that died in the movie. As an innocent child I used to wonder why did they have to die and what would have happened if they had survived.
I remember walking for an entire day to reach my village. All those Namaste plants on the way were the motivating factor to keep on moving.
I remember getting complimented for the first and the last time for my handwriting.
I remember getting a prize for the first time. It was for a drawing of a boy; a boy reassembling me.
I remember the day I got my first pair of glasses. It is so vivid because it was the same day that I broke them.
I remember screaming " Batti ayo " back in those load shedding days. I can still feel the excitement.
I remember getting caught while trying to bunk the class. We four made the same excuse of a stomache but generously the teacher excused us.
I remember all those classes we skipped and the places we wandered just in the name of science project during the parent's day season.
I remember all these things whether they are tiny pieces of happiness or giant lumps of sorrow. They always hit me with a smooth breeze of nostalgia.
