RAIN AND THE PAPER BOAT RACE

in #hive3 years ago

It’s rainy season in my place. We are enjoying the monsoon. Water bodies filled with their maximum capacity. Cultivations are going on full swing. Every where its seems complete lush green. Presently I am missing my childhood.

Rainy season used to be total fun season for us. Especially, our paper boat race.

I along with group of friends were making individual paper boats and compete boat racing usually in the over flowing drain water. We used to purchase different coloured polish papers and would make paper boats of various sizes as per our choices. We were extracting waxes from the candles and were applying it on all the outer and inner surfaces on our paper boats, especially on the flat bottom most surface. This we used to do, to make our boat Surfaces impermeable and water resistant. Once our boats became ready. We were on a hunt to find a suitable watery race track, it may be a overflowing drain, water flowing onto the inclined roads or lastly the nearby water bodies. After fixing the race track we would select the origin and the final destination. And finally the boat race would happened with a reverse countdown. With enormous expectation, enthusiasm and joy we used complete the race.

It was a feeling of pride to watch our self made paper boat sailing. More than this we were enjoying disturbing other boats by throwing stone at them and makes them loose their balance and get submerged. Its nostalgia, still the rain are the same but without a boat race.

I was playing this game with boat in the rainy season in front of my home boundary main door. (our main Gallee). I remember the day how we all the children playing together, bringing our own boat, also we get beatten by our parents due to making boat from our school notebook paper. What a day ... some times that land was slippery so we slide there near about 50 meters. It was fun days for all the children including me. That is the life without any tensions. Free of mind. Yes, the real life. I was feeling like I am in the Aden Garden. Without any dresses in my body no tensions.
