Mumbai is inordinately cold this winter, and its got everyone surprised. So am I. But this year is so magical, this just adds to the sparkle of our love. The maddening intensity of it all. So since we're getting to enjoy cold this year, I'm gettin to do ALL of those things i havent done since my childhood days. Like turning my face up to the faint winter sun, going for a lovely walk in the afternoon, snuggling under quilts in the mornings, sipping on hot coffee wearing a sweater. Have pockets full of lozenges, and tissues. I think I'm just feeling colder because I want to enjoy it soo much.
Being in Mumbai for four years now, has made me this HUGE rain lover. I LOVE walking in the rain. And walking in the winter sun is my absolute second favourite after that. I dont know, but winter sunshine is just more yellow compared to the summer's . I love the way it falls between leaves, making patterns on stone walkways. Its almost palpable- like you can put your hand out and get a handful of yellowing gold. Lighting brown eyes to honey. Putting a resplendent glow on faces that are framed with wool. Picking out subtle highlights in my auburn hair. Playing with the diamonds in rings, throwing rainbows on keyboards. I love sitting next to the window and feel the warmth on the back of my neck. Like a silent love. It deepens the myriad smiles on your lips, so sweet.
I love the winter sunshine as well. But I could never have put it in as descriptive and as flowing words as you have. Wow! *bows*
