Get Your Feet Wet

She was only eight months old. Came to see the sea. First sight made her eyes wide open ... and ears listening to the roaring sound of the waves. Landed her tiny hesitant feet on the shore. First touch of the sea made her jump in excitement. Heard her giggle. She started playing with the waves. Running to and fro... "catch me if you can". Ecstasy filled the air. life - an unknown sea, get your feet wet my friends or the springs will pass by (C) Anindya Mohan Tagore (Bobby)
